reported in AIR 1972 Delhi 110
"10. In my opinion, this letter, called letter of
acceptance, is only a counter offer and it cannot
reasonably be construed to be acceptance of an
offer.
D.S. Constructions Limited vs Rites Limited And Anr. on 17 January, 2006
(b) D.S. Construction Ltd., Vs. RITES Ltd & Anr
127 (2006) Delhi Law Times 1
"10.......The offer or proposal had to be accepted
in its entirety with the condition or not at all and, if
the offer was not accepted in its entirety, then it
would be a deemed refusal on the part of the
plaintiff and, therefore, the defendant No.1 would
not be entitled to forfeit the earnest money. There
is no other clause which has been pointed out
under which eh defendant No.1 could forfeit the
earnest money in the circumstances obtaining tin
this case.
Zodiac Electricals Pvt. Ltd. vs Union Of India (Uoi) And Ors. on 1 May, 1985
(c) Zodiac Electricals Pvt Ltd., Vs. Union of India &
Ors (1986) 3 SCC 522
"2....It is, therefore, obvious that though in the
opening part of this letter dated August 13, 1979
the DGS&D appeared to accept the offer
contained in the tender of the Appellants, they did
not unconditionally accept this offer, because they
insisted that the Appellants should deposit by
September 15, 1979 a sum of Rs.75,000 as

Appeal No.46 of 2012
Security Deposit". The DGS&D thus added a
condition which was contrary to the stipulation
made in the offer of the Appellants. This letter
dated August 13, 1979 could not possibly,
therefore, be regarded as unconditional
acceptance of the offer of the Appellants and in
the circumstances it could not be possibly
contended that a concluded contract had been
arrived at between the parties by reason of this
letter dated August 13, 1979. This letter dated
August 13, 1979 was really in the nature of a
counter offer made by the DGS&D to the
Appellants. The question is whether this counter
offer was accepted by the Appellants".

"22. It is a settled position in law that a notice
inviting tenders merely indicate a readiness to
receive offers. The offer comes from a person
who submits the tender and there is no contract
until the person asking for the tender accepts one
of them.
Shankarlal Narayandas vs The New Mofussil Co. Ltd. on 13 March, 1946
(d) Shankarlal Narayandas Mundade v. The New
Mofussil Co. Ltd and Ors reported in AIR 1946 PC
97
"9. But apart from the objection that the point was
taken too late, their Lordships, with all due respect
for the Judges of the High Court, are satisfied that
it is without substance. In their Lordship's opinion,
the facts do not support the inference that the
parties intended to be bound only when a formal
agreement had been executed. On the contrary,
their Lordships consider that there was ample
evidence to prove that both parties intended to
make, and believed that they had made, a binding
oral agreement. Their desire and intention to put
that agreement into formal shape does not affect
its validity. It was contended by Counsel for the
Respondent that the agreement was necessarily
incomplete because it had been left to the
solicitors to settle some of its terms and because
(as counsel rightly submitted) a solicitor has no
implied authority to make a contract on his client's
behalf. Their Lordships are of opinion, however,
that no question as to a solicitor's implied authority
arises in this case. In their Lordship's view, it is a
fair inference from the evidence that Sir Shapurji
authorized Mr. Manekshaw to put before the
plaintiff for his acceptance the "usual" terms. In
Page 48 of 102
Appeal No.46 of 2012
the circumstances which have already been
explained, this seems to their Lordships to have
been a very natural and business like course for
Sir Shapurji to take, and necessarily resulted,
when the Appellant accepted the terms, in the
formation of a binding contract".
