In this procedure, holding companies never complied with the loan agreement terms concerning the exploitation of borrowed funds. On the other hand, banks also never bothered to monitor such events or exploitation in the corporate world. To control such activities, Section 185 of the Companies Act, 2013 was introduced to lay down certain restrictions on inter-corporate loans on companies. Further, it put some restrictions on companies in giving loans to its directors, so that the working of the directors can be well monitored.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" class=\"wp-image-100628\" title=\"Can a Company give Loan to its Directors? \" src=\"https:\/\/legalwindow.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/Process-of-Trademark-Registration-in-India-49-1024x538.png\" alt=\"Can a Company give Loan to its Directors? \" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.legalwindow.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Process-of-Trademark-Registration-in-India-49-1024x538.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.legalwindow.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Process-of-Trademark-Registration-in-India-49-600x315.png 600w, https:\/\/www.legalwindow.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Process-of-Trademark-Registration-in-India-49-300x158.png 300w, https:\/\/www.legalwindow.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Process-of-Trademark-Registration-in-India-49-768x403.png 768w, https:\/\/www.legalwindow.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Process-of-Trademark-Registration-in-India-49.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p id=\"concept\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">In this article, we will put stress on one question \u201c whether the company can give loan to its directors\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3><strong>Concept of \u201cLoan to Directors by Company\u201d as per Section 185 of Companies Act, 2013<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<p>A Company which may be:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li class=\"lists\">Private Company<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"lists\">Public Company<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"lists\"><a href=\"https:\/\/legalwindow.in\/one-person-company\/\">One Person Company<\/a><\/li>\r\n<li class=\"lists\">Small Company<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"lists\">Start ups, etc.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Are not allowed to advance any loan or any guarantee, directly or indirectly, including any loan represented by a Book Debt, to :<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li class=\"lists\">Any of its directors, or<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"lists\">Any director of its holding company, or<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"lists\">Any partner or relative of such director<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"lists\">Firm in which any such director is a partner<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"lists\">Firm in which the relative of any such director is a partner<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p id=\"interested\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Hence, the provisions of Section 185 clearly states that companies cannot give loan to its director or any of its relatives. <\/em>Further, loan is also not provided to any other such person, in which the director is interested.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3><strong>Meaning of \u201cAny other Person in whom the director is interested\u201d<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As per Section 185 of the Companies Act, 2013, the meaning of \u201cany other person in whom the director is interested\u201d means:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li class=\"lists\">Any company in which the said director or any of his relative is a Partner or Director<\/li>\r\n<li id=\"exemptions\" class=\"lists\">Any Private Company in which the said director or any of his relative is a director<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"lists\">A Body Corporate in which the director holds or controls 25% or more of voting powers.<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"lists\">Any Body Corporate who\u2019s Manager\/Managing Director\/Board of Directors acts on his directions and instructions.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3><strong>Exemptions regarding Loans given to Directors<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As a reader, you might have understood that a company cannot provide loans to its directors.
