π Are Verbal Agreements Legally Valid in India?
YES! ✅ In many cases, a verbal agreement IS legally enforceable under the Indian Contract Act, 1872! π️ However, there’s a catch—you must PROVE it! π’π

✔️ Consideration – Something of value exchanged (money, service, goods) π°π
✔️ Mutual intent – Both parties must have agreed seriously π€π

A court may accept a verbal contract in cases like:
π Loans & financial transactions – "I’ll return ₹50,000 in 3 months" π°π
π Business deals – "I'll supply 1000 products by next month" ππ¦
π Employment promises – "You’re hired at ₹1 lakh/month" πΌπ΅
π Sale of goods or services – "Deliver my car, I’ll pay later" ππ ️
