Explanation / Answer

A contract is valid when all the parties agree on terms of the contract. If the teams are not correct then that agreement is based on the false promises and then the contract is invalid. If those false promises are made knowingly then that is misrepresentation. If the misrepresentation was made without the knowledge of truth then it is known as fraudulent misrepresentation.

The best answer regarding the tort of fraudulent misrepresentation is: -

d) A party who make fraudulent misrepresent must intend that other parties rely upon the misrepresentation; the injured party must have reasonable relied upon the misrepresentation; and the injured party must have suffered damages because of relying on the misrepresentation.
