Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether a company can repay a loan by providing services instead of cash, as per the Company Act 2013. Generally, repaying a loan via services is permissible if outlined in the original loan agreement and doesn't significantly alter the repayment terms. While a board resolution is typically needed for loan repayment decisions, issuing equity in lieu of a loan requires specific shareholder resolutions. Simple service-based repayment, if agreed, usually doesn't necessitate a new resolution beyond the initial loan approval.

Yes, if a company decides to repay a loan, a resolution must be passed by the board of directors to that effect. The resolution should specify the details of the repayment, including the amount to be repaid and the date of repayment.

Thanks Aisha..
@ Ankurika ,There is no restriction on repayment of loan by providing service in lieu of actual repayment if it's included in terms of agreement or not increasing or substantially changing the repayment made in cash as compared to service ,only when equity is issued for loan then there is a need to pass s/r ,else ,just repayment is not require any resolution because it's already approved at time of taking loan u/s 179..
