Hereford J : The Privy Council have held that the effect of sections
10 and 11 of the Contract Act of India is that an infant cannot
make a contract within the meaning of the Act and that a
contract made by an infant is not only voidable but also void..
The decision of the PC is binding on this court, and therefore
there can be no doubt that those transfer are void.
