No , it is not the related party Transaction. Tough it is covered under the definition of section 2(76) of the Companies Act 2013, which defines related party, but Such a transaction are not covered under section 188(1), which describes the related party Transaction. So taking loan from the director, which is also the director of the Company will not come under the purview of section 188(1).Hence it is not the related Party Transaction
