Section 297

Hi Neha,

Section 297 is applicable in this case as the companies have a common director and are Private Limited Companies. The company with paid-up capital of more than Rs. 1 cr. requires permission of Regional Director(a costly affair) while in case of Company with lesser paid-up capital aresolution in this regard. This Section does not include real estate business contract agreements.

Thanks & Regards

Hi,

I agree with Mr. Amit.

And what if both the Private Companies having common directors have paid up capital more tha Rs. 1 crore, then in that case who shall seek the approval for entering itno contract.?

Kindly clarfiy my point.

In such case both the companies will require central government's PRIOR approval.

I agree

Dear Sakshi,

As in your case both the companies are private having paidup capital more than Rs. 1 Crore.So,  Its enough to get central governments approval by any one of such private companys.

Mr. Karthik I disagree with your opinion.

As both the companies are having transaction with each other (one will be purchasing and the other will be selling) both of them are required to get the respective transaction approved. thus both will require the Central Government's prior approval.
