    Solution

    Section 2(b) defines "agreement" as "every promise and every set of promises, forming the consideration for each other." A proposal when accepted becomes an agreement (Sections 2(a) and 2(b) read together). An agreement need not be written (it can be oral) and may exist without consideration in certain cases as per Section 25. [Citation: Sections 2(a)-2(b), Indian Contract Act, 1872]
