6. ULTRA VIRES CONTRACTS A contract of company which is ultra vires, i.e., outside the objective clause as defined by memorandum of association is wholly void and is of no legal effect. The objection to an ultra vires contract is, not merely that the company ought not to have made it, but that it could not make it.

Moonbeam and Tang both have rights and obligations regarding the June instalment as one buyer’s right is a seller’s obligation and vice versa.

Fraudulent inducement has four elements: (1) false…
