------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Characteristics of a Company
A company as an entity has many distinct features which together make it a unique
organization. The essential characteristics of a company are following:
1. Separate legal existence:
A company has a distinct legal entity independent of its members. It can own
property, make contracts and file suits in its own name. Shareholders are not
the joint owners of the company's property.
A shareholder cannot be held liable for the acts of the company. Similarly,
members of the company are not its agents.
There can be contracts between a company and its members. A creditor of the
company is not a creditor of its members.
The separate legal entity of a company was recognised in the famous case of
Salomon, v. Salomon and Co. Ltd. The facts of the case were as follows:
Salomon formed a company which acquired his own shoe business. He took all
the shares except six shares which he distributed among his wife, daughter and
four sons.Salomon also purchased some debentures of the company which
gave him a charge over its assets. At the time of winding up, the company's
assets were not sufficient enough to pay its debts.
19/20
3. The creditors of the company (other than Salomon) argued that their debts
should be cleared before paying Salomon for his debentures because Salomon
and the company was one and the same person.The Court decided that after
incorporation, Salomon and Co. had an identity separate from Salomon even
though he owned virtually all the shares in the company.
2. Perpetual succession:
Perpetual succession means continued existence. A company is a creation of
the law and only the law can bring an end to its existence. Its life does not
depend on the life of its members.
The death, insolvency or lunacy of members does not affect the life of a
company. It continues to exits even if all its members die. Members may come
and go but the company goes on until it is wound up.
3. Limited liability:
As a company has a separate legal entity, its members cannot be held liable for
the debts of the company. The liability of every member is limited to the
nominal value of the shares bought by him or to the amount of guarantee given
by him.
For instance, if a member has 50 shares of Rs. 10 each, his liability is limited to
Rs 500. Even if the assets of the company are insufficient to satisfy fully the
claims of the creditors, no member can be called to pay anything more than
what is due from him.
However, if the members of the company so desire, they may form a company
with unlimited liability.
4. Transferability of shares:
The capital of a company is divided into parts. Each part is called a share.
These shares are generally transferable.
A shareholder is free to withdraw his membership from the company by
transferring his shares. However, in actual practice some restrictions are
placed on the transfer of shares.
5. Common seal:
Being an artificial entity, a company cannot act and sign itself. Therefore, it
acts through human beings. All the acts of the company are authorised by its
common seal.
The name of the company is engraved on its common seal. The common seal is
affixed on all important documents as a token of the Company's approval.
The common seal is the official signature of the company. Any document
which does not bear the common seal of the company is not binding on the
company
6. Separation of ownership and control:
4. Members have no right to participate directly in the day-to-day management
of a company. They elect their representatives, called directors, who manage
the company's affairs on behalf of the members.
Thus, the ownership of a company is distributed among the shareholders while
management is vested in the board of directors. The management of a
company is delegated and centralised.
7. Voluntary association:
A joint stock company is a voluntary association of certain persons formed to
carry out a particular purpose in common. Members of a company can join it
and leave it at their own free will.
8. Artificial legal person:
A company is an artificial person created by law. It exists only in
contemplation of law. It is competent to enter into contracts and to own
property in its own name. But it does not take birth like a natural person and it
has no physical body of a natural human being.
9. Corporate finance:
The share capital of a company is generally divided into a large number of
shares of small value. These shares are purchased by a large number of people
from different walks of life.
10. Statutory regulation and control:
Government exercises control through company law over the management of
joint stock companies. A company is required to comply with several legal
formalities and to file several documents with the Registrar of Companies.
Conclusion. Thus from the above discussion it can be concluded that
company is a artificial person created by natural person and recognized by law
as a legal person .it is the modern form of business having some distinguished
characteristics like transferability of share with limited liability and can also
avail some the rights of a natural person .
