Explanation

Section 2(i) of the Indian Contract Act defines a voidable agreement as one that is enforceable by law at the option of one or more parties but not at the option of the other(s). A voidable contract is valid and binding unless and until the aggrieved party chooses to avoid it. A void contract is never enforceable; a valid contract is binding on all parties; an illegal contract is prohibited by law.
