Dear Friend,

Section 297 clearly states

Provided that such contract or contracts do not relate to goods and materials the value of which, or services the cost of which, exceeds five thousand rupees in the aggregate in any year comprised in the period of the contract or contracts; or

It means that the cost of the goods purchased or Sold during the financial year should not  exceed Rs. 5000/- unless prior approval by passing a resolution in the board meeting taken.

Upto my understanding;

 

Here, it means, that company regularly sale, purchase or supply of any goods, materials or services (of any amount) but the transacton entered with the director/relative/firm/partner/private company {i.e. Transaction in which director(s) is/are interested} is not in excess of Rs. 5,000/- in aggregate of one year.

 

Regards, 

The provision of section 297 is not apply to contracts  made for cash at prevailing market price or a company main business of goods or supply of services.

 

Regards
