If there is loan from one NBFC company to other NBFC company
Then Auditor provision which is prescribed in Companies (Audit and Auditors) rules, 2014

The NBFC is covered or not?
Please advice me on this matter

NBFC is a financial institution within the meaning of Sec.45-I(c) of RBI Act hence above provisions will apply.

 

Thanks Sir,

 

But sir please see “financial institution” includes a scheduled bank, and any other financial institution defined or notified under the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934;(2 of 1934)

 

What is the meaning of (2 of 1934) 

Is this 2 refers to section 2 of Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934

I have seen section 2 but nowhere is defined Financial Institution in section 2 definitions 

I know financial Institution covered NBFC but in section 2 nowhere is defined

Please sir guide me
