Which of the following propositions is incorrect about the doctrine of frustration of contract?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Section 56 frustration concerns an executory contract, not invalidation of a completed transfer through a lease. Raja Dhruv Dev Chand expressly distinguishes those situations. A lessee’s statutory avoidance right for specified destruction is instead governed by TPA section 108(e). An event caused by the promisor’s own act or choice does not supply self-induced frustration.
