Under Section 13, a breach of condition is treated only as a breach of warranty (so the buyer cannot repudiate) where:
AThe buyer waives the condition, elects to treat it as a warranty, or has accepted goods under a non-severable contract
BA court orders it
CThe price has risen
DThe seller demands it
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. The buyer waives the condition, elects to treat it as a warranty, or has accepted goods under a non-severable contract
Section 13 lists these cases: voluntary waiver, election to treat the breach as a warranty, or acceptance of goods (whole or part) under a non-severable contract; then only damages can be claimed.
