S.M. GOLDYN ABRIC SAM, ASST. PROFESSOR, DEPT. OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES, NMCC, MARTHANDAM
UNDUE INFLUENCE - DEFINITION
Sec. 16 of the Indian Contract Act, 1872 provides that a contract is
said to be induced by undue influence when the relations subsisting
between the parties are such that one of the parties is in a position to
dominate the will of the other, and uses that position to obtain an
unfair advantage over the other.
Undue influence is basically a moral coercion as opposed to physical
coercion.
It includes coercion, compulsion, menace or persuasion.
