Under Section 185 of the Indian Contract Act, no consideration is necessary to create an agency. In light of this, which statement is most accurate? 

Section 185 expressly provides that no consideration is necessary to create an agency. This means that the authority of an agent can validly arise without any payment or consideration flowing between the principal and the agent at the time of creation of the agency. However, this does not preclude the agent from being entitled to remuneration under the terms of the agency agreement. Section 219 separately provides for the agent's right to remuneration. The absence of consideration for creating the agency merely means that the relationship itself is valid without consideration-it is an exception to the general rule in Section 25 that an agreement without consideration is void.
