No limits on borrowing or ratio between secured and unsecured loans specified in the Companies Act. However the creditors at the time of lending will definitely consider the debt equity ratio.
However in the case of a public company or a subsidiary of a public company, where the moneys to be borrowed together with the moneys already borrwed will exceed the aggregate of the paid up capital of the company and its free reserves, then the consent of the members in general meeting is required as per Section 293(1)(d).

Agree with the views of Ms Jayashree. In case of Private Company there is no limit.
