Damages have gained much significance especially in commercial transactions, and as punitive measures for violation of rights of concerned persons. Damages are popularly granted in cases of tort or on breach of contract.

This paper broadly covers damages in cases of contractual breaches in India and the practical implications of certain key concepts. The paper tries to provide answers to a frequently asked questions like – Can the liability for damages be restricted? Are exemplary damages permissible in India?

In this paper, we have also provided a brief overview of claim and grant of damages in cases of torts, indemnity contracts, arbitral proceedings, sale of goods, consumer disputes, infringement of intellectual property rights and EPC contracts.
