Question

Answer

Void Agreement

Explanation:

A contract must have certain essential elements like offer, acceptance, consideration, intention to create legal relations, etc. If any of these elements are missing, then the contract becomes void.

In the given scenario, P agrees to pay a certain sum to Q if Q brings on earth a star from the sky. Here, the subject matter of the contract is impossible. It is impossible for anyone to bring a star from the sky to the earth. Hence, this contract is void ab initio i.e., void from the beginning.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 'B' - Void agreement.

Answer

Because the contract to bring on earth a star from sky is impossible so it is void

Answer

No one can bring a star from the sky......and so it's a void (not valid/legally binding) agreement...

Answer

B
