The directors of other firms cannot be held liable for the debts of this company, but individually they can be held for the debts. If the funds of the debtor company is being utilised by the other company, then that company may be brought on records for further course of legal action in this regard.

you can move to high court for seeking relief on the basis of piercing of corporate veil. the amount can't be recovered from individual directors unless the doctrine of corporate veil applied by the high court.
