Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the permissibility of utilising application money received by a limited company. Generally, once share allotment is completed within 60 days of receipt and the relevant forms (like PAS-03) are filed, the company can use the funds for business purposes. This is permissible under the Companies Act, 2013, provided all initial compliance steps are met.

Not permissible

Once the company done all the compliance at the beginning like issuance of share certificate filing of relevant resolution. 

Conclusion company can utilise the money. 

This is based on my understanding. 

Allotment to be done within 60 days from date of receipt of application money and after filing PAS-03 within 15 days, company can utliIse it.
