28 December 2010 QUERY 1:
X, Y and Z are the share holders and directors of XYZ Pvt Ltd

XYZ Pvt Ltd is a holding company of A Pvt ltd, B Pvt ltd, C Pvt ltd and D Pvt Ltd

If X, Y and Z gives loan to A Pvt ltd, B Pvt ltd, C Pvt ltd and D Pvt Ltd, will it attract the provisions of 58A or not?

Note: X, Y and Z are not the directors and shareholders A Pvt ltd, B Pvt ltd, C Pvt ltd and D Pvt Ltd

QUERY 2:
P, Q and R are the share holders and directors of 10 private companies and partners of a LLP.

Can a LLP give loan to the 10 private companies in which P, Q and R are the shareholders and directors?

On both the above cases, i need to know if there is any Sec 58A violation or any violation under the companies act.
