B.C. MOHINDRA vs THE MUNICIPAL BOARD, SAHARANPUR

The Supreme Court held that the provisions of Section 97 of the U.P. Municipalities Act, 1916, were complied with, as the signed list of bidders and the resolution of the Board constituted a written contract. The Court found that the appellant's bid was confirmed by the Board's resolution, thus establishing a valid agreement. The High Court's remand of the case was deemed unjustified, and the suit for recovery of dues was decreed in favor of the respondent.
