Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Due care and attention are essential to good faith under section 2(11) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (formerly section 52 IPC). The provision excludes an act or belief formed without that care, even where the person sincerely believes it to be proper. Mere honesty or a subjective bona fide belief therefore does not supply the statutory standard.
