    In which of the following cases, undue influence is presumed:
    Question



    In which of the following cases, undue influence is presumed:

    A.

    Creditor and debtor

    B.

    Landlord and tenant

    C.

    Husband and wife

    D.

    Parent and child

    Correct option is D

    Undue influence is presumed in relationships where one party holds a dominant position over the other, creating a fiduciary relationship. This is common in the case of parent and child, as the parent typically has authority and influence over the child.
    Information Booster:
    Under Section 16 of the Indian Contract Act, 1872, undue influence is presumed in relationships where:
    1. One party is in a position to dominate the will of the other.
    2. The dominant party uses its position to obtain an unfair advantage.
    Common examples include:
    · Parent and child.
    · Guardian and ward.
    · Doctor and patient.
    · Trustee and beneficiary.
    Additional Knowledge:
    · Creditor and debtor (a): Undue influence is not presumed but can be proved if coercion exists.
    · Landlord and tenant (b): No presumption, as the relationship is contractual and typically commercial.
    · Husband and wife (c): Influence is not automatically presumed unless proven in specific circumstances.
