A commercial contract refers to a legally binding agreement wherein rights, obligations, responsibilities, roles and terms binding the relationship of the parties are defined obligating the parties to do or not to do certain things. Commercial contracts are executed between various stakeholders of the business including vendors, suppliers, lenders, service providers, customers and collaborators etc. Breach of commercial contract implies that a contracting party has failed to fulfil the obligations set out in the agreement.

Some of the important commercial contracts include the following: –
  • Service Agreements:A contract wherein one party agrees to provide a service and the other party pays a consideration for the service on the terms and conditions specified in the agreement.
  • Partnership agreement:A partnership agreement spells out the relationship, duties, powers and obligations of the partners, capital contributions to the partnership, nature of business and procedure to be followed for dissolution of partnership, admission/removal of a partner from the partnership.
