1). Mulla: Indian Contract Act

Mulla's Indian Contract Act still stands as the classic textbook on contract law even 90 years after the publication of the first edition, and continues to provide clarity on what is an increasingly complex subject. The thirteenth edition presents an authoritative, revised and fully updated account of Indian contract law, including discussion of important recent cases and legislation like the Indian Contract (Amendment) Act, 1997 and the Information Technology Act, 2000. Corresponding developments in English law have also been discussed and thoroughly analysed. Anyone involved with the law of contract can turn to Mulla secure in the knowledge that it covers all the key areas of law by way of a detailed and in-depth analysis. It is essential reading for any student of contract law, and a valuable first point of reference for practitioners and academics.
