Explanation:

- Option 1: A suit for damages can be filed where the contract was made. This is because the formation of the contract is an important aspect of legal jurisdiction.

- Option 2: It can also be filed where the contract was to be performed or where the breach occurred. Jurisdiction often lies in the place where contractual obligations are to be carried out or violated.

- Option 3: Filing anywhere in India is not typically permissible as jurisdiction is usually determined by specific factors such as location of contract formation or performance.

- Option 4: Both (a) and (b) are correct locations, as both aspects are considered valid for determining jurisdiction.
