Is a section 8 company a bottomless abyss.

Quick Summary
Section 8 companies, by nature, are designed for charitable or non-profit purposes, meaning direct withdrawal of funds by members is generally prohibited by the Companies Act. While surplus funds can be transferred to another Section 8 company with similar objectives, practical avenues for accessing money without further investment are limited. However, employees and directors can receive remuneration, including bonuses, for their services rendered.

As per provision of Companies Act one can not take money out of section 8 companies.
However if section 8 is going to stop then the excess money i.e surplus is transfered to another section 8 company which works in same way.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge but what I exactly wanted to know is whether we can take the money out of section 8 company without investing it further, not necessarily from companies act point of view but what happens in practical life .
As per section 8(1) (a) of the Companies Act, 2013 section 8 company can carry such type of activities. Bonus can be paid to employ but not to members even they are employees. There is no restriction on payment remuneration to employees/director
