(a) for the sale, purchase or supply of any goods, materials or services; or
(b) after the commencement of this Act, for underwriting the subscripttion of any shares in, or debentures of, the company.
299. Disclosure of interest by director.—(1) Every director of a company who is in any way, whether directly or indirectly, concerned or interested in a contract or arrangement, or proposed contract or arrangement, entered into or to be entered into, by or on behalf of the company, shall disclose1 the nature of his concern or interest at a meeting of the Board of directors.
301. Register of contracts, companies and firms in which directors are interested.—(1) Every company shall keep one or more registers in which shall be entered separately particulars of all contracts or arrangements to which section 297 or section 299 applies.
