Legal Question in Legal Ethics in India

Hello,

I am based in India. An order is being released on a vendor for supplying services. Prior to this, the was an agreement with with the same vendor with a valid upto date on the agreement.

The new purchase order references the same earlier agreement and has a clause which reads as "Please refer to our earlier contract dated xx/xx/xx for all terms and conditions.

I have a concern that referencing a document / agreement that has already expired ( validity date) is of no use and has no legal binding as well.

Warm regards

Akash
