Loan from persons resident out of india to an indian company will be hit by ECB restrictions. There is cap on the loan amounts and compliance of various formalities with AD bank and RBI.

Better you receive monies through equity or convertible debentures. Then, the procedure is simpler.

yes you have to follow ECB guidelines , before getting loan you have to take the permission from RBi

there is some restriction for use of loan

 

1) loan should not use for working capital purpose for the business

2) loan should not  use for investment in capital market only

3) loan shpuld be used for cpaital asset for the company

other condition also ,go to RBI site read ECB guidelines

agree with mr. valji

Our Articles states certain restrictions i.e

The Shareholders shall not be obliged to provide any such further finance unless they agree as to the amount and method by which such finance is to be provided. Unless otherwise agreed, any further contribution of finance to the Company (whether by way of subscripttion for shares, stock or debentures or by way of loan or otherwise) shall be made by each of them (or members of their respective Groups) in their respective Equity Proportions, at the same time and on the same terms.  

 

It means I need to obtain Loan from 3 shareholders in their Equity proportions...
