Dear Sir,
Investment or Loan-------totally dependent on the transaction. If you have purchased the shares of the private co than it is iv=investment otherwise loan.
Section 295 loan to director not applicable bcoz this is specifically governed by section 372A regarding inter-corporate transactions. Further exemptions mentioned u/s 372A(8) are not available to the listed company in the given case.
Section 297 also not applicable.
Section 299 and 300 and 301 are applicable to the listed company. As per section 299 disclosure of interest by directors is necessary and accordingly entry is required in the register mentioned u/s 301.
Wait for other expert opinions.
Thanks
