CONTRACT ACT

Mr. A offers to buy Mr. B's house on certain terms.Acceptance was to be sent by 'B' within 6 (six) weeks. B within one week sent a letter acceptlng the offer with an alteration of one term. A then withdrew his offer. B writes again within three weeks accepting the terms originally proposed by 'A'. Hence this is a valid contract.Comment?

No, as the offer is altered, it lead to a counter offer and original offer gets lapsed
so accepting it after it is lapsed is of no use

No. Conditional acceptance is no acceptance.

You should receive fresh offer from A to avert any future eventuality.
