Answers
Answer:
According to Section 148 of the Contract Act, “Bailment means the delivery of goods by one person to another for some purpose, upon a contract that they shall, when the purpose is accomplished, be returned or otherwise disposed of according to the directions of the person delivering them”.
A Bailment that Benefits Both the Bailor and Bailee: An example of this would be parking your car in a paid parking lot. You would get the benefit of parking your car and the owner of the lot would get the benefit of the fee that is paid. A bailee can face liability for damaging the bailed items if they were negligent.
Transfer of goods from one person to another for a specific purpose is known as the bailment. Transfer of goods from one person to another as security for repayment of debt is known as the pledge. It is defined under section 148 of the Indian Contract Act, 1872.
