PRIVATE LIMITED COMPANY
Private Limited Company
A private limited company is a type of privately held small business entity. This type of business entity limits
owner liability to their shares, limits the number of shareholders to 200, and restricts shareholders from publicly
trading shares.
COMPANY LAW DEFINES A PRIVATE COMPANY AS
ONE WHICH:
 has a minimum Authorised share capital of Rs. 1 Lakh or such higher capital as may
be prescribed and
 by its Articles of Association restricts the right of transfer of its share
 limits the number of its members to 200 which will not include-
 members who are employees of the company and
 members who are ex-employees of the company and were members while in
such employment and who have continued to be members after ceasing to be
employees
 prohibits any invitation to the public to subscribe for any shares or debentures of the
company and
 prohibits any invitation or acceptance of deposits from persons other than its
members, directors or their relatives.
In simple words private limited company is a company whose ownership is private usually
by family members, friends and relatives.
ADVANTAGES:
1. YOUR RISK IN THE BUSINESS MINIMIZES:
If the company experience financial distress because of normal business activity, the personal assests
of shareholders will not be at rish of being seized by creditors because of limited liability of
shareholders.
2. YOUR TAX BURDEN REDUCES:
There are many allowances and tax- deductible costs that can be offset against the profits of a
company and the tax would be paid after deducting many costs incurred by you. In addition to that the
current level of Corporation Tax is lower than income tax rates.
3. YOUR SOCIAL APPEAL AND REPUTATION ENHANCES:
With the formation of company, you are declaring to the people that you are serious about the business
and its continuity. Banks easily provide loans against the security of the company's assets. The
greatest advantage is that you can build right team of people. Quality workforce is not hesitant to be
part of the company, because of their sense of security.
4. SCOPE OF EXPANSION IS HIGHER:
Scope for expanding the business becomes high, as the authorized capital can be increased over
1,00,000/- INR, which multiplies the borrowing capacity of the organization and also secures the
deposits and loans from Banks and financial institutions as ‘big projects require big investments’.
