Under Section 4 of the Indian Contract Act, communication of acceptance is complete against the PROPOSER when the acceptance is put in course of transmission to him so as to be OUT OF THE POWER of the acceptor (postal rule — dispatch completes it). Against the ACCEPTOR, it is complete only when it comes to the knowledge of the proposer.
