GENERAL KNOWLEDGE

Detailed explanation-1: -A void contract is a formal agreement that is effectively illegitimate and unenforceable from the moment it is created. 1. A void contract differs from a voidable contract, although both may indeed be nullified for similar reasons. A contract may be deemed void if it is not enforceable as it was originally written.

Detailed explanation-2: -(i) An agreement which is enforceable by law at the option of one or more of the parties thereto, but not at the option of the other or others, is a voidable contract; (j) A contract which ceases to be enforceable by law becomes void when it ceases to be enforceable.

Detailed explanation-3: -An agreement to carry out an illegal act is an example of a void agreement. For example, an agreement between drug dealers and buyers is a void agreement simply because the terms of the contract are illegal. In such a case, neither party can go to court to enforce the contract.
