ESSENTIALS OF A VALID SALES CONTRACT
Two parties: There must be two distinct parties i.e. a buyer and a
seller.Goods: Goods which form the subject matter of the contract
of sale must be movable. Price: The consideration of the contract of sale, called
price, must be money.Hence in nutshell a contract is made by an offer to
buy or sell goods for a price and the acceptance of such offer.
