Expert Please Give your Comments

18 September 2012 As far as my knowledge is concerned, exemption is given only when HOLDING gives loan to subsidiary.. if subsidiary company is giving loan to holding, it does attract section 295.. still let other experts answer..

18 September 2012 Thank you sir for your kind view.

I want to ask it is also applicable in the case of the "Wholly Owned Subsidiary Company" ?

and also Other view, if any


18 September 2012 According Sub-section (2), following transactions are exempted from the restrictions of sub-section (1)
i) Any loan made, guarantee given or security provided – by a private company which is not a subsidiary of a public company,
ii) Any loan made – by a holding company to its subsidiary,
iii) Any guarantee given or security provided – by a holding company in respect of a loan made to its subsidiary.


So Reverse Case is Missing in This Section.

It Means Loan From Subsidiary to Holding is Not Exempted u/s 295.

It Will Attract Penalty.

18 September 2012 Yes ashutosh, even "wholly" owned subsidiary is not liable for exemption..

19 September 2012 Thank You Sir....
