Quick Summary
This discussion explores the possibility of transferring an unsecured loan balance (Mr. A) to a sundry debtor account (Mr. B) within accounting books. While the Indian Companies Act 2013 doesn't define 'loan', the consensus suggests this transfer is permissible, provided it's supported by a loan agreement and properly documented. Guidance is offered regarding potential legal frameworks like The Usurious Loans Act, 1918, and restrictions on cash repayments under IT Sections 269SS & 269T.

I’m not sure but I think it is possible. Before that, make sure, you document the transfer of hands and add it to debtors. If anything goes wrong, I believe this act in India will help you - THE USURIOUS LOANS ACT, 1918

The Indian companies act 2013 does not define loan. No information available regarding transfer of loans online apart from IT Section 269SS & 269T which prohibits loan repayments via cash equal or more than 20,000₹. So yes u can proceed further as the transfer of unsecured loans depends upon the loan agreement.
