Section 185 of ca,2013

456 views 8 replies

 I'm on an audit of a company and facing a problem w.r.t to company law and request you to please provide a solution for the same. Here it is:

There are 4 companies with a common direcctor, lets say A,B,C and D.

Now Co A is giving loan to Co B on 2nd June 2015 for rs 9 lacs which was repaid within 2 months and then another loan was given on 18th feb 2016and was repaid in installments by 28th march. 

Now as per section 185 of CA,2013 or any other section of the act, is this loan a violation of the act? Or is there anything else that I should look into for this matter.

Waiting for an early reply

Thank You

Dear Manik,

There is no violation in giving loan to other company. If the loan value exceeds 60% of Paid up share capital, free reserves and securities premium account  or 100% of free reserves whicever is more. Then Section 186 attracts. Are u undertaking Secreterial Audit or Financial Audit?

 

Statutory Audit

 

If the case is covered u/s 185, loan is prohibited and you will have to give details thereof in your as report per requirements of CARO 2016.

Also you requires to make the disclosure as per sec 186(4) in financials by way of notes to accounts.
