But AC is insufficient to cool the room area. Now, Anant wants to avoid the contract, but M/s Frontline Electronics denies returning or changing the AC as AC is installed and returning or changing will result a heavy loss to it. On the basis of above provisions and facts, undoubtedly Anant purchases AC only on the suggestion of M/s Frontline Electronics. AC is not fit and suitable for the room area of Anant, hence he can avoid the contract.
