rules of acceptance
explain communication of acceptence against proposer and acceptor ?
The offer to do or complete a specifc duty, act, or acts, and the acceptance of the offer.
Generally an offer is accepted when acceptance is communicated to the offeror. This is covered under the section 8 of the INDIAN CONTRACT ACT.
Communication of revocation of an offer is complete when the receiver of such communication effectively accepts such revocation.
The rule of revocation is that the communication of the revocation of the offer should reach to the offeree before his initiation of the communication of acceptance. Once the offeree has communicated his offer or initiated his communication to the offer, the offerer is bound by his proposal.Example: If B makes a proposal to A on 2.1.2011. A sends his acceptance on 4.1.2011 by post. The letter may not reach B on 4.1.2011 itself. But if B wants to revoke his proposal on or after 4.1.2011, it is voidable upon A's discretion. A can make B bound by his proposal.Revocation on the part of the acceptor is possible if he can communicate the revocation of his acceptance before the acceptance is communicated to the offerer. Once the communication of the acceptance is complete, then the acceptor is bound by his acceptance.Example: If B makes a proposal to A on 2.1.2011 and A sends his acceptance on 4.1.2011 via post. If B communicates to A, through speedier means (eg telephone), then his acceptance would be considered to be revoked.The answer is according to the Indian Contracts Act, 1972.

difference between offer and acceptance?
An effective acceptance requires clear communication of the offer and the acceptance must be unequivocal, demonstrating a mutual agreement between the parties involved. It should be made within a reasonable time frame and in a manner consistent with the method specified in the offer. Additionally, both parties must have the legal capacity to accept, and the acceptance must not introduce new terms that would alter the original offer.
An offer can be accepted through conduct, which means that a party's actions can indicate acceptance without explicit communication. For example, if a person begins to perform the actions stipulated in a contract, such as starting a job after receiving an offer, this can constitute acceptance. Additionally, acceptance can occur through silence in certain circumstances, particularly if the offeree has a duty to respond or if prior dealings establish that silence indicates acceptance.
Offer and acceptance are required to create a legally binding contract. The offer is contracted and then by signing the contract the other person indicates their acceptance of the terms.
