    Under the Limitation Act, 1963, "Acknowledgment in

    Writing" (Section 18) must be made: 
    A After the expiration of the limitation period. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Under Section 18(1) of the Limitation Act, 1963, an acknowledgment of liability in writing must be made "before the expiration of the prescribed period for a suit or application". This acknowledgment creates a fresh starting point for the limitation period, effectively extending the time within which a legal action can be brought.
