Free consent, as defined by the Indian Contract Act of 1872, refers to the agreement between parties that is made voluntarily and without any coercion, undue influence, fraud, misrepresentation, or mistake. For consent to be considered free, both parties must fully understand the terms of the contract and agree to them without external pressures. If consent is obtained through any of the aforementioned factors, it may render the contract voidable at the option of the aggrieved party. Thus, free consent is essential for the validity of a contract under Indian law.
