An Indian company can give loan to foreign company .

Loan can be extended to an overseas entity only if there is already existing equity participation by way of direct investment, within the overall ceiling of 400% of the Indian party's net worth as on the date of the last audited balance sheet.

You have to report by way of ODI form through online to RBI . The physical copy has to be given to your authorised dealer and he will file it the same through online.
