25 June 2010 Section 301 of Companies Act, 1956 requires every Company to maintain Register of Contracts entered with related parties as per provisions of Section 297 and Section 299.

And in your case, it is applicable.

25 June 2010 Section 297 is not applicable in our case.

Providing loan to the company does not automatically put director in the category of interested director u/s 299. So analyse carefully if director is interested in the transaction in anyway then entry in 301 register in necessary otherwise there is no need to do the same.

Thanks

25 June 2010 Mr.Ankur Garg's opinion seems to be right. If there is no element of contract existing in the transaction, there is no need to enter in the register.
