.........................................................................................................................Book DescriptionThis popular book, now in its fifth edition, deals with the Contract Act, 1862 and the Specific Relief Act, 1963. The purpose of one is to lay down principles for formation of contractual relations and to provide the remedial measure of recovery of damages in the event of one party's failure to keep his contractual commitments. The Specific Relief Act of 1963, which replaced the earlier Act of 1877, provides the remedial measures for forcing parties to perform their actual contractual commitments and not to get rid of them by just paying compensation for their Acts. The present work provides a summary version in a combined manner of all the statutory provisions and judicial pronouncements on them. The presentation has been shaped as a text material. During the period between the present and preceding editions, there have been no statutory changes. New trends in the subjects have emerged only through judicial decisions..........................................................................................................................Contents1.
