===India=== In India leonine contracts are generally deemed unconscionable contracts (though not all leonine contracts are unconscionable contracts) and are voidable. The [https://indiankanoon.org/doc/140848451/ 199th Law Commission report (2006) on "UNFAIR (PROCEDURAL & SUBSTANTIVE) TERMS IN CONTRACT"] deals with it. The unfairness can be procedural or substantive. However, standard form contracts are ubiquitous in India and especially in the digital age, standard form contracts are used much more frequently than any other form. They can be legally valid if reasonable notice has been given and if the terms are not unreasonable.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Bag |first1=Amartya |title=Standard form of Contracts and the law in India |url=https://blog.ipleaders.in/standard-form-of-contracts-and-the-law-in-india/ |website=iPleaders |date=28 December 2014 |access-date=5 October 2019}}</ref> Unfair terms in non-negotiated agreements are often held void.<ref>{{cite web |last1=SEBI |first1=Forwards Market Commission |title=Letter seeking comments from public |url=https://www.sebi.gov.in/sebi_data/fmcfiles/aug-2016/1470814790136.pdf |website=Sebi.gov.in |publisher=SEBI}}</ref>
