21 December 2012 Hi

ISSUE OF DEBENTURES BY A PRIVATE LIMITED COMPANY.

POSITION IN LAW:
(a) Under the Companies (Acceptance of Deposit) Rules, 1975 “any amount
raised by issue of debentures (including convertible debentures) secured by the
mortgage of any immovable property of the company and that the market value
of the immovable property secured is higher than the amount of debentures
issued” is not considered to be a DEPOSIT.
(b) Under Section 3(1)(d) of the Act, a Private Company is prohibited from
accepting Deposit from persons other than its Directors, Members and their
relatives.
(c) Hence, the Private Company must issue Debentures only as a Secured Debenture.

Yes, the provisions of section 117, 117A, 117B and 117C will apply to private limited company.

The Companies Act is not giving any exemption from creating trustee.
