Share Capital in Holding co by its Subsidiary

I want to know

Can a subsidiary company hold equity share capital or subscribe to Share Application money in Holding Company both companies being Private Limited Companies? Under which provisions is it governed? Transactions that a Subsidiary Company can enter into with a Holding Company, any list?

Please advise

Subsidiary Company cannot become member of a holding Company except two cases mentioned in the Section 42 of the Companies. Hence, subsi cannot invest in the shares of holding co.

Share Application money is not considered as a share capital..and it is treated as loans and advances in the books of lender and current liability in the books of borrower..so there is no problem for giving share application to holding cos but it should not be converted into share capital of the holding co.

try and avoid this type of transactions instead other way outs like loan / share puchase should be considered

Rameez no Company X can not issue share to company Y as the subsidiary company can not hold shares in holding company...
