No.....

He can not set off loss from salary invome
Loss from other sources can only be set off in the same year and cannot be carried forward except loss arising from maintainance of race horses
@ Jatinder Kumar
Is there any specific section or case law for not setting of loss against salary income

Income from Salary can be set off only with loss on self occupied property. ( loss due to interest on loan for purchase/construction) and not other losses.

Loan to a company by a director by taking loan from others is offence under companies Act.

Pl see rule 2(1)(c)(viii) in Companies (Acceptance of Deposit) Rules 2014.
