thankyou sir for sharing this

1thng to ask..Is the same thing applicable on pvt. ltd co. also?

yes, according to companies Act 2013 a private company can borrow only from directors  

The Company can borrow the money from its directors by passing the board resolution as per section 179 of the Companies Act 2013. Director has to file declaration that such loan shall be given out of its own fund and not from borrowing outside.

However company can borrow the money from its member upto 100 perecnt of the paid up share capital, free reserves and securities premium amount.

However the Company cannot take loan from the partnership firms as partnership firms are not included in Body corporates. But Company can take loan from LLP as LLP is covered under the defination of Body Corporates

A company took amount of Rs. 3000 from a person who was a Director earlier but not on the date of transaction. The person is relative of a person who holds majority shares of the Company.  At present he is neither a Director or Shareholder. Company is showing such amount under current laibilties as fees paid by such person. Is it permissible under Companies Act 2013?
