Sec 409

As per your query concerned!

Under section 182 of the Indian Contract Act, 1872 defined 'agent' as a person employed to do any act for another or to represent another in dealings with h third person. The person for whom such act is done, or who is so represented, is called the 'principal'.

Whereas, there is no other definition that has been provided in any Indian law.

Hope it is useful!
