Diploma in Understanding General and Specific Contract Law in India

The law of contracts’ development can be seen as spanning several centuries, evolving constantly to keep pace with the economic, political and technological changes that have occurred over the course of time. In India, the law pertaining to contracts is to be found in the Indian Contract Act 1872. The object of the Contract law is to ensure that the rights and obligations arising out of a contract are honoured and that legal remedies are made available to an aggrieved party against the party failing to honour his part of agreement. Sections 1-75 of the Indian Contract Act 1872 deal with the general principles of contracts- which are applicable to all types of contracts. Furthermore, Chapter VIII to X deal with specific contracts, along with the Sale of Goods Act, 1930, the Partnership Act, 1932 and the Negotiable Instruments Act of 1881.

The Diploma in Understanding General and Specific Contract Law in India is brought to you by Brahmandaberi Group and Scriboard Advocates and Legal Consultants in association with Enhelion.

In every walk of life, the process of evaluation takes place in one form or the other. If the evaluation process is eliminated from human life then perhaps the aim of life may be lost. Being in the same line, Enhelion is committed to evaluating the process of learning through its courses.

The enrollee will be evaluated based on two Project Assignments, which would test the analytical understanding of the topics covered in the video lecture.

The most intriguing aspect of the evaluation process is the time flexibility it affords. You can choose to undergo the evaluation process as and when you are ready for the same.

To be eligible to receive a certificate after successful completion of the course, one is required to secure an overall minimum of 40 percent in the Project Assignments.
