    Illegal is doing something that is not permitted by law ( violating the law) and unlawful is doing something that is not authorized by law, but it is not mentioned in law. Example: illegal: sale of alcohol to minors Unlawful: Suppose you made a contract with B to pay him ₹10000 per month. But you later decline to pay him. This is unlawful

    An agreement is illegal if it violates a specific statute, is immoral, or opposes public policy.

    an agreement is unlawful if it is forbidden by law, fraudulent, or implies injury to another person or property
