Doubt ca foundation law ica,1872

Corporate & Other Laws

My doubt is in example no 51. As you can see it is given A will be liable to pay. But if we see by consideration definition and laws, consideration should be desired by the promiser, but here A didn't desire or asked for it, hence he should not be liable to pay any sum of consideration, then why it's written that he is liable? Please help and clear anyone which is right ? And why? What is the mistake in my reasoning?

The acceptance of an offer cannot be implied from the silence . Now, when A don't want to continue with the subscription after 1 year he should tell the company that he is not interested. But in this case accepting the services without informing that he is not interested, comes under consideration.

It's a case of acceptance by conduct.
