There is no restriction under the Indian Partnership Act Please examine the Articles of Association of the companies involved for any restrictions imposed in which case u will have to amend the Articles to suit the purpose.
What are the compliances in this case as the directors are forming the firm with the company as one of the partners and diverting the funds of the company in the firm.
first check articles of both the companies whether they allow the company to be member of partnership firm
secondly if your company and such firm is entering into any contract then provisions of section 297,298,300,301,and AS 18 has to be followed, mind well if your company has paid up capital more than 1 Cr then u need to go for central govt approval for such contract
