Explain rules relating to place of performance of promise.

Answer»

Time and place of Performance of Promise: It is only the promisee for whom the contract is performed. Only the promisee can demand the performance of the promise under a contract.

For Example: X promises Y to pay Z Rs 10,000/-. X does not pay the sum to Z. Here Z cannot bind X for the payment. It is only promisee Y who can enforce the promise against the promisor X. Of course, there are certain special cases, where a third party can enforce a promise though he is not a party to the contract 

For example in respect of trust, marriage settlement etc. In case of death of promisee, the representative appointed by him can ask for the performance of the promise under a contract.
