10 September 2012 Is Sole Properitorship firms & subsidiary companies are also related parties as per section 297 of the Companies Act, 1956?


Thanks

10 September 2012 Hi

Section 297 of the Companies Act, 1056 is applicable if one partner is partnership firm is relative of director. Such section not talking the relation about proprietor. So as per my under standing this section will not apply to proprietorship firm.

Other views are also solicited.

10 September 2012 Hi


Section 297 does not apply to:

1. Giving or taking loans.
2.Contract in respect of immovable property (as it is not 'good' ).{Letter No. 9/4190-CL-X dated 27.03.1990}.
