Question

Answer

Because quoting price of of the mobile phone is just an mere statement or you can say it's just an invitation which does not results in any promise or agreement

Answer

It's a mere statement. Nobody heard him hence no proposal was made. It's not an offer to somebody either. It's a simple statement by X. It's 'I wish' not 'I will sell it to you Y for this amount.'

Answer

Explanation:
The given principle states that when one person expresses his willingness to do or abstain from doing something with the intention of obtaining the agreement of another person, it is considered a proposal.

In the given facts, 'X' makes a statement in an uninhabited hall, expressing his desire to sell his mobile phone for Rs. 1000. However, there is no mention of this statement being addressed to any specific person or group of persons. Therefore, it does not fulfill the requirement of the principle that a proposal must be made/addressed to some person(s).

Reasoning:
To analyze the given facts, we need to understand the principle and its requirements for a valid proposal. In this case, the principle clearly states that a proposal must be made/addressed to some person(s). This means that the expression of willingness or desire must be directed towards someone specific.

In the given scenario, 'X' makes the statement in an uninhabited hall, which indicates that there is no one present to whom the statement is addressed. As a result, there is no person who can give their assent or agreement to 'X's proposal.

Conclusion:
Based on the principle and the given facts, it can be concluded that 'X' made a statement that did not result in any proposal. Since the statement was not made/addressed to any person(s), it cannot be considered a valid proposal. Therefore, the correct answer is option C, 'X' made a statement that did not result in any proposal.

Answer

The answer is c because X while making that statement did not address anyone which as per the principle is clearly not a proposal. There's no agreement since nobody else agreed to buy the phone. And there's no promise either. So the answer should be C.

Answer

Because x did not adressed his statement to any person

Answer

Quoting a price cannot result in an agreement. 'X' simply put his desire to sell his mobile in an open audience and that shouldn't be counted as any proposal.

Answer

C is the correct option as for a statement to become a proposal, needs to be addressed to some person, whereas X made the statement in an uninhabited hall.

Answer

Unihabited means no one is present. so the willingness is not signified to anybody. hence the statement made by X did not result in a proposal.

Answer

Option C is correct because as u can see, the proposal was made in an uninhabited hall, hence the offer wasnt communicated. As it wasn't communicated it does bot result in any proposal !!

Answer

It is not a proposal because  a valid proposal is made only when it is made to any person and here hall was uninhabited and x wished to sell so it is not a promise  and for an agreement too atleast to persons are needed

Answer

Offcourse  c is the answer there is no plurality and statement does not lead to agreement

Answer

Option (C) 'X' made a statement that did not result any proposal

Answer

Because X gives only invitation to offer , not an offer .

Answer

Its just an agreement to sell to answer is C.

Answer

Wish not signifies to willingness

Answer

Option 'C' is correct because principle clearly states that The expression of willingness or desire result in a valid proposal only if it is addressed to a person.. Here in fact he made announcement in an inhabited hall.

Answer

X's statement did not result in any offer as it was not communicated to anyone

Answer

C

Answer

The answer is C as the statement x made is just a mere conversation I.e it's a general statement which doesn't result in any kind of intention as it wasn't made regards to something/someone.

Answer

Answer is c.beacuse here x just shows his willingness.But this will be contract when y also accept that willingness.but here this proposal is limited to x only.so we can say that x made statement that doesn't result in any proposal.

Answer

It is neither an offer nor a proposal it js just an 'invitation to offer'.Any response to such an offer results in an offer of a contract which can be answered by either an acceptance or a counter offer.

Answer

Because quotation of a price is a mere invitation to offer. Hence it can be referred to just as a proposal. A promise as well as an agreement  needs consensus ad idem between two consenting individuals which is nowhere indicated in the facts.

Answer

It's just an invitation to offer which doesn't result into acceptance...
