You will have to read the provisions of section 20 of BR Act with particular reference to section 77 of the Companies Act, where a banking company in the ordinary course of its business has been allowed to make loans. Unless you give proper background about the case with regard to the provisions of section 77 of the Companies Act, it would be quite difficult to say something with certainty.
