A Correct answer
Explanation

Under Section 23 of the Indian Contract Act, agreements made out of natural love and affection are valid even without consideration, provided they meet certain conditions. The parties must be close relatives, the love and affection must be natural, and the agreement must be in writing and registered. This is a well-recognized exception to the requirement of consideration.
