Indian contract act 1872.

an agreement is a contract when there is an intention to create legal relation
in Balfour vs Balfour case
the court said that when it was made there was no intention to create legal relationship hence it is not enforceable by law
it's a social agreement
but if the husband wife had created a legal relationship while making the promise
will that be contract then?

Quick Summary
The Indian Contract Act 1872 defines what constitutes a legally enforceable contract. A key element is the intention to create legal relations, as highlighted in the Balfour v Balfour case where a domestic agreement was deemed unenforceable due to a lack of such intent. The discussion also touches upon how religious acts might influence marital agreements and their contractual status.

Husband and wife is governed by respective religious ACT like Hindu marriage Act or any other relegion.
