Thank you sir. Moreover I understand that in the above case, both the companies are public companies which does not attract S. 297. The other company must be a Private Company. But since the Paid up capital is more than one crore, does that effect the applicability?
Please also revert on my second questeion.

First the nature of company is decided for section 297 thereafter paid up capital. So if the section is not applicable to both public company, no matter of its paid up capital.

A director is said to be directly concerned or interested in a contract or arrangement, when he himself has personal interest in a particular contract or arrangement. Whereas a director is said to be indirectly concerned or interested when any of his relatives and associates has got personal interest in the particular contract or arrangement.
