If A makes a statement for B, who sells Fruits, that “B sells rotten fruits”. But, B does not suffer any financial or physical damage. Can B sue A ?
Yes
No
Depends on whether it is true or not
None of the above.
The wrongful act of A had caused him mental suffering and humiliation, and therefore, he was entitled to recover damages for the injury to his reputation and feelings. Hence, Option a is correct. ( Similar to what has been held in Ratanlal v. Prahlad)
