Service Agreements in India
In India, Service Agreements are commonly used across sectors such as IT, consulting, event management, digital marketing, and freelancing. Though not required to be registered, these contracts are legally enforceable in court under the Indian Contract Act, 1872. For high-value projects or long-term arrangements, notarization or stamp duty may be advisable to strengthen enforceability.
