loan in cash to pvt. ltd.company

Directors and their relatives and shareholders can give loans to Pvt Company, provided there should be proper agreement or deed and such loan should not be against the shareholders interest in teh company.

By mere Cash I think yes, but in normal course of business the same will be routed through Bank or Authorised Dealer if FEMA is applicable to the situation

Kindly rectify the same if Iam wrong :)

what i know is that Cash loan can be given to a pvt. company only upto Rs. 20,000/-. But I am not so sure about that.

The Rule of Rs. 20000/- is of the Income Tax, which says that.

In a Single Day only Maximum of Rs. 20000/ - can be paid towards the Expenditure to any particular Seller/ Vendor, etc.
