A contract can be valid if the person is a minor?

Under Sec. 3 of te Indian Majority Act, 1875, a minor is a person "who has not completed the age of 18 years of age". If a guardin for his person or property is appointed before he attains the age of 18 years of age, then the minority of that minor extends until he attains the age of 21 years.Section 11 of the Indian Contract Act, 1872 prescribes that "a minor is not competent to contract" Therefore, any contract entered into with a minor is void ab initio(= from the beginning) and hence unenforceable in a Court of Law. It was held in Mohari Bibi vs. Dharmadas Ghosh, that "A contract by aminor is not contract at all" In fact, it cannot be ratified by the minor on his attaining his majority age.M.J.
