Agree with Yogesh

As Pvt. Ltd. company which is not subsidiary of a Public Company is exempt, hence is this correct that without any approval and without any limit, loan can be given by a Pvt. Ltd. Company to its' Directors or to Pvt. companies in which such directors are interested as directors and / or major shareholders or loan to Proprietary firm of such Director ? Please clarify.

Thanks in advance
