Solution

The correct option is A Ab initio void
An illegal agreement, under the common law of contract, is one that the courts will not enforce because the purpose of the agreement is to achieve an illegal end. The illegal end must result from performance of the contract itself. These kind of agreement are void from the beginning stage only and hence is void ab initio i.e. void from the beginning.
