ABSTRACT

This article explores the shortcomings within Indian contract law, focusing on ambiguities, enforcement issues, and the need for reforms. While the Indian Contract Act of 1872 established a foundational legal framework, various socio-economic changes and judicial interpretations have revealed significant weaknesses. This study highlights critical areas requiring attention to enhance contractual relationships and ensure justice.
