Q1. A contracts with B to construct a cold storage facility for ₹50 lakh within 6 months. After the expiry of the time period, B fails to perform the contract. A immediately hires C to complete the construction at ₹60 lakh and later files a suit against B claiming ₹10 lakh as the additional cost incurred. Which statement is correct under the Specific Relief Act, 1963?
Answer: (D) A cannot recover the cost because A did not give B prior notice.
Solution: Under Section 20 of the Specific Relief Act, 1963 (Substituted Performance), the aggrieved party must first give a written notice of at least 30 days to the defaulting party to perform the contract. Only after such notice and continued failure can substituted performance be obtained through a third party. Since A hired C without giving prior notice to B, A cannot recover the additional ₹10 lakh incurred.
Q2. Section 233 of the Companies Act, 2013 deals with "Fast Track Merger". What is the time duration and the concerned authority for approval?
Answer: (A) 60–90 Days, Regional Director
Solution: Section 233 provides a simplified merger process for certain classes of companies, such as small companies and holding-subsidiary companies. The scheme is approved by the Regional Director (RD) instead of the NCLT, making the process faster. The approval process generally takes around 60–90 days, subject to compliance with statutory requirements and absence of objections.
Q3. Ramesh's job contract with M/s XYZ bars him from joining any rival software firm in India for three years post-resignation. But after resigning, he joins a competitor within three years. XYZ files a suit to enforce the restrictive clause. Under the Indian Contract Act, 1872, what is the legal position?
Answer: (C) Void – restrains lawful profession after employment ends.
Solution:
Section 27 of the Indian Contract Act, 1872 declares agreements in restraint of trade, profession, or business as void, except in limited circumstances such as the sale of goodwill. A post-employment restriction preventing an employee from joining a competitor is generally unenforceable in India. Since the clause restrains Ramesh from carrying on a lawful profession after leaving employment, it is void and cannot be enforced by XYZ.
