Dear Kanika,
The provisions of Section 295 would be attracted i.e. prior approval of Central Govt. would be mandatory in such case.
Kindly refer to Section 295(1)(a). I m reproducing Clause (a) for your perusal "any director of the lending Company or of a Company which is its holding Company or any partner or relative of any such director".
However, if the holding Company is a Private Company, then Section 295 will not be attracted (kindly refer Clause(s) (a), (b) and (c) of Sub - Section (2) of Section 295.
Best Regards
