Additional Info: Contract Law plays a vital role in Commercial Transactions. It helps to create a platform for business and commerce. But, in India, contracts are governed by the Indian Contract Act, 1872. This act provides the framework for formation, validity, illegality, and discharge of contracts.

Understanding these laws is essential for commercial transactions to ensure smooth business operations and avoid disputes.
