13 June 2012 i jst wanna know about the past consideration . Is past consideration valid in india?

13 June 2012 hi,

past consideration is of no effect to consideration at all. It is where the defendant's promise is subsequent to the plaintiff's act and independent of it. for example, where P saves D from drowning; Das an expression pf gratitude, later promises to pay P a sum of money as a reward.
