Section 269SS provides, inter alia, that
"No person shall, after the 30th day of June, 1984, take or accept from any other person any loan or deposit otherwise than by an account payee cheque or account payee bank draft if the amount of such loan or deposit or the aggregate amount of such loan and deposit exceeds Rs. 20,000/-"
Similarly Section 269T prohibits repayment of loan otherwise than by an account payee cheque.
In the first case M/S ABC has violated the provisions of section 269SS and 269T

In the second case, the loan of Rs. 15,000/- taken and repaid in cash does not violate provisions of Section 269SS and 269T. However, the loan of Rs. 1,60,000/- taken subsequently and repaid in cash will be in violation of Section 269SS and Section 269T
