27 September 2016 Obviously, this is a related party transaction under Section 188. If the amount of rent is exceeding the limit specified in Section 188 read with relevant rules, then Company needs to pass special resolution before entering into such transaction. Kindly refer the provisions of Section 188.

Even though they both are related parties, an exemption has been to Private Companies (notification dated 05th June, 2015) in which interested party can vote for such resolution.
