Security deposit by private company


This query is : Resolved 

12 December 2014 Dear friends,
A private company takes trade security deposits from its purchasers which is not covered under section 73 to 76 of the Companies Act, 2013 and exempted under Rule 2(1)(c) of the Companies (Acceptance of Deposits) Rules, 2014. For the said deposits, it issues Business Deposit Receipts and also pays interest. What specific terms and conditions regarding the exemption can be included in the security deposit receipt so that it is not interpreted as a Deposit under Section 73 to 76 of the Companies Act, 2013.
Thanks and regards,
Sapna Kannaidas

12 December 2014 The more you try to prove that it is security deposit, more you will land into troubles. Just issue money receipt, nothing more.
(By the way, is it customary in your trade to accept SECURITY deposit?)
