The issue is if a loan given by a D to the co will be treated as deposit within the purview of section 58A read with Rules, 1975.

As per my knowledge any amount received by a Private Company from its directors shall not be treated as deposits provided he gives a declaration that the amount being adanced by such director to the co is not being procured or borrowed from others.
Please correct me If I am wrong.
And if my interpretation is correct, then please let me know what provisions cover loan advanced by the director to the Company?

section 292 deals with giving of loans from a company to others, not receiving of loans.
you should be careful of interest rates, it should not be abnormal so as to get disallowed in assessments and get qualified from audit viewpoint.
maintain 301 register , comply 299.
