No one can enrich at the expense of the other signifies.

  • A.Damages
  • B.Penalty
  • C.Quasicontract
  • D.Compensation

Answer: C

The principle that no one should be enriched at another's expense signifies quasi-contract.

Quasi-contracts (sections 68 to 72 of the Contract Act) create obligations resembling those of a contract where there is no agreement, to prevent unjust enrichment. Examples are the duty to pay for necessaries supplied to a person incapable of contracting, to repay money paid by mistake, and to pay for a non-gratuitous benefit enjoyed.

Damages and compensation are remedies for breach, and a penalty is a sum stipulated to deter breach; none is the doctrine against unjust enrichment.
