As per sec 141(3)(d)(ii) and Rule 10(2) of Companies (Audit and Auditors) Rules, 2014

A person who is indebted to the company or it's subsidiary, or it's holding or associate company or a subsidiary or such holding company, for an amount exceeding Rs.5lakhs.

It should be calculated individually for any of the companies as it is mentioned "or" it's holding co, "or" subsidiary, "or" holding co. In case if it is provision must contain a word aggregate..

To my knowledge, Relatives of any partner of the firm holding security of or interest in the company of face value exceeding RS.1lakh and not 5lakhs. (Correct me if I'm wrong)

(Sec 141(3)(d)(i) and Rule 10(1) of Companies (Audit and Auditors) Rules, 2014.

It must be concluded individually and not in aggregate.
Thanks to both of you Mr. Shankar and Mr. Vishesh Surana
