You are welcome Sonia… 372 A relates to Intercorporate loans and Investments. It basically says, that a company can give loan or advance to another company to the maximum of 100% of its free reserves or 60% of Paid up Capital plus free reserves, whichever is higher. If the company wants to go beyond this limit, it has to pass a special resolution in a General Meeting 372A does not apply to following 1. Loan / Guarantee / Security / Investment made / given by: A Bank, Insurance Company in ordinary course of business, Housing Finance Company,
A Company established with the object of financing industrial enterprises or providing infrastructural facilities,
A Company whose principal business is the acquisition of shares, stock, debentures or other securities, A Private Company, unless it is a Subsidiary of a Public Company.
2. Investment made in shares allotted u/s 81(1)(a), i.e. Rights Shares,
3. Loan made by a Holding Company to its wholly – owned Subsidiary,
4. Guarantee given or security provided by a Holding Company, in respect of loan made to its wholly – owned Subsidiary, or
