Provisional Contracts

Who will be liable for any breach of provisional contracts entered into by a Public Company with a third party before commencement of business? If the Company does not receive the certificate of commencement, can the third party enforce the contract against the company?

no, provisional contracts will bind the company only after receiving the certificate of commencement of business.

A third party can enforce specific perdormance suit  against the company  on the folowing grounds;

1). if the agreemnet is prior tp the Incorporation certificate date and  if the said agreemnet has a reference of consideration price and if such amount is adopted in the first board meeting of the company as preincorporation expences and this transcation is reflecteed in the first  annual dircetors report and annual accounts of the company.

2). If the said agreemnet  has reference by stating that, post incorporation of the company, the said transaction will be treated as the transaction of the company.
