Yes, if the director gives declaration required under Proviso to Rule 2(1)(c)(viii) of Companies (Acceptance of Deposits) Rules 2014.  This Rule does not state that loan from director who is also a shareholder will be treated as 'deposit'.

 

Compliances required:

 

1. Special resolution u/s 180(1)(c) if applicable.

2. Filing Form MGT.14 with ROC with a copy of special resolution (if applicable)

3. Board resolution u/s 179(3)(d)

4. Filing Form MGT.14 with ROC with copy of Board resolution

 

 

 

Yes, loans from directors will not be treated as deposits under the new acceptance of deosits rules, 2014 provided the director gives a declaration as required there under....Even if the director is a member, he is giving the loan in the capacity of a director, so it is not a problem.

 

The rules says that the if loan has been taken from Person who is director on that date, the loan will not be termed as deposit. So although the person is realtive of directo, members or whatever the case may be, if the person is a director as on date of giving loan, the loan will be exempted from definition of deposit.
