Under the central text of Order XXXVII rule 1(2)(b)(i) of the Code of Civil Procedure, a suit seeking only a debt or liquidated demand in money arising on a contract may use the summary procedure in a competent High Court. What minimum form does this provision require for the contract?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
Order XXXVII rule 1(2)(b)(i) requires a written contract for the specified contractual debt or liquidated money demand. The provision does not itself add a universal registration requirement. An oral contract therefore does not satisfy this particular summary-suit category.
