Consideration is an essential element of a legally binding contract where each party agrees to give or do something in exchange for something from the other party. In English law, consideration must be present for a contract to be enforceable, whereas in Indian law, a promise can be enforceable even without consideration under certain circumstances, such as promises made to close family members. Additionally, Indian law recognizes past consideration as valid consideration, while English law generally does not.

Not really, justifiable or reasonable reliance on the promise of another can prevent the promisor from offering the defense that there was no consideration for their promise. An enforceable contract requires an offer, an acceptance, and a consideration (or a bargained for exchange). Under the doctrine of Promissory Estoppel, a promise can be held enforceable as a quasi-contract when it would be reasonably foreseeable to the promisor that the promisee would detrimentally rely on their promise. In that case the promisor would be liable to the promisee for reliance damages and possibly even expectancy damages.

No, a donation is, by definition, a gift. There is also the possibility of a "pledge", which is a promise of a future donation.
