Client’s Keyboard Confession:
"Sir, we finalised everything over email—scope, price, timelines. But now they’re ghosting me! Does my email count as a contract?" π€π¬π»
π‘ The Legal Reality Check:
YES! In India, an email exchange can be a legally binding contract—as long as it meets the basic essentials under the Indian Contract Act, 1872. So, that “let’s go ahead” on Gmail can totally become courtroom-worthy! π️π§Ύ

π₯️ When Emails are NOT Valid Contracts:
❌ Casual conversation with no clear offer/acceptance
❌ Lack of clarity on terms
❌ If the agreement requires stamping/registration (like property deals, some leases, etc.)
❌ If parties didn’t intend it to be final
