Parul has a boutique showroom. She receives an order for a Louis Vuitton handbag from Kalpana. She delivers it to the house of Ena (Kalpana’s neighbour) by mistake.

Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

Ena must pay for the handbag because she knowingly treated a non-gratuitous delivery as her own. Section 70 covers goods left by a trader at another person's house by mistake when that person enjoys the benefit. The absence of an order from Ena does not make Parul's commercial delivery a gift.
