The assignment of the rights of a mortgagee to a woman in consideration of past cohabitation is:

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

The Supreme Court distinguished past cohabitation from an agreement promising future illicit intercourse and noted the upheld assignment of mortgagee rights in consideration of past cohabitation in Ram Sarup v Bela. The stated assignment is therefore not automatically void as an immoral future bargain under section 6(h). That does not make every purported contract for sexual services enforceable; the historical past-act transfer and its legal character are the point.
