Chapter-specific decision flowchart
Finin2min Q&A
What decision does ICA-C02 help a business make?
It determines how communication, acceptance and revocation of proposals should be classified, documented, performed and enforced under sections 3-9 of the Indian Contract Act, 1872.
Which provision should be read first in ICA-C02?
Begin with section 3 (Communication, acceptance and revocation of proposals) and then read the connected definitions, exceptions and remedy provisions in sequence.
What is the principal implementation risk in ICA-C02?
Applying a commercial label without proving the statutory conditions for communication, acceptance and revocation of proposals, or acting without authority, notice, performance and payment evidence.
Which execution checks are specific to ICA-C02?
Confirm the correct entities, signatory authority, consent, complete annexures, stamp and registration treatment, digital audit trail and approvals relevant to communication, acceptance and revocation of proposals.
How should evidence be indexed for ICA-C02?
Link every section in the chapter with the contract or deed, authority, chronology, notices, performance, delivery, payment, loss and remedy evidence supporting it.
What calculation should be retained for ICA-C02?
Retain the relevant price, tax, interest, partner-account, loss, mitigation, restitution or relief working with sources and assumptions, not only the final number.
How does limitation affect ICA-C02?
Classify the precise cause of action associated with communication, acceptance and revocation of proposals, record accrual, refusal, notice, acknowledgment and exclusion dates, and apply the correct Limitation Act article.
Can arbitration resolve every dispute arising under ICA-C02?
Arbitration may govern the forum, but it does not validate illegality, remove mandatory rules or make a non-arbitrable subject arbitrable. Check scope, seat and interim relief.
Which tax and entity overlays should be checked for ICA-C02?
Check Companies Act authority and related-party controls, partnership constitution, GST supply and invoice consequences, withholding, accounting and insolvency effects.
What is the final professional sign-off for ICA-C02?
Confirm the current statutory source, section conclusions, State variation, authority, calculation, limitation, remedy, forum and complete evidence trail.
Why is section 9 important to ICA-C02?
Section 9 (Promises, express and implied) completes the chapter control and must be tested independently.
