What are the ways in which a Unlisted Public Ltd Co. can borrow money ? Whether it can borrow from general public without giving them any voting rights/ share.Can it borrow money from general public in form of unsecured loans.

22 December 2011 Public company can borrow from directors, it is an exempted deposit.

Public company can also borrow from other companies whether public or private, it is also exempted deposit.

If case public company borrow from general public, deposit rules under section 58A of Companies Act, 1956 will be applicable and Statement in lieu of advertisement (SLA) will be filed with ROC.
