knows or has reason to believe to be false, shall be punished with simple imprisonment for a term
which may extend to six months, or with fine which may extend to one thousand rupees, or with
both; or, if the information which he is legally bound to give respects the commission of an offence,
or is required for the purpose of preventing the commission of an offence, or in order to the
apprehension of an offender, with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend
to two years, or with fine, or with both.

believes to be false, intending thereby to cause, or knowing it to be likely that he will thereby cause,
such public servant- (a) to do or omit anything which such public servant ought not to do or omit if
the true state of facts respecting which such information is given were known by him, or (b) to use
the lawful power of such public servant to the injury or annoyance of any person, shall be punished
with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to six months, or with fine

19. Void-ability of agreements without free consent. When consent to an agreement is caused by
coercion, fraud or misrepresentation, the agreement is a contract voidable at the option of the party
whose consent was so caused. A party to contract, whose consent was caused by fraud or
misrepresentation, may, if he thinks fit, insist that the contract shall be performed, and that he shall
be put on the position in which he would have been if the representations made had been true.
ExceptionIf such consent was caused by misrepresentation or by silence, fraudulent within the
meaning of section 17, the contract, nevertheless, is not voidable, if the party whose consent was so
caused had the means of discovering the truth with ordinary diligence. ExplanationA fraud or
misrepresentation which did not cause the consent to a contract of the party on whom such fraud
was practised, or to whom such misrepresentation was made, does not render a contract voidable.

hundred maunds of indigo have been made. After this B buys the factory. The contract is not

voidable on account of A's misrepresentation

63. (c) 19A. Power to set aside contract induced by undue influence. When consent to an
agreement is caused by undue influence, the agreement is a contract voidable at the option of the
party whose consent was so caused. Any such contract may be set aside either absolutely or, if the
party who was entitled to avoid it has received any benefit thereunder, upon such terms and

conditions as to the Court may seem just.
