Maharashtra State Board: Class 11
Introduction
A Private Limited Company is a business owned by a small group, such as a family or close friends. The public cannot buy shares in this company. You need at least 2, but not more than 200 members.
Maharashtra State Board: Class 11
Definition: Private Limited Company
According to the Companies Act, 2013,
A private company is a company which, by its articles, restricts the right to transfer its shares, if any, limits the number of its members to 200, and prohibits any invitation to the public to subscribe for any shares or debentures of the company.
Maharashtra State Board: Class 11
Features
Maharashtra State Board: Class 11
Restrictions
- No Public Invitation: Cannot invite the public to buy shares or debentures.
- Limited Deposits: Can accept deposits only from members, directors, or relatives.
- Limited Share Transfer: Members can transfer shares, but only under special company rules.
Maharashtra State Board: Class 11
Real-Life Application
Imagine your family starts a bakery and only family members can own shares. No outsiders are allowed to buy in. If you want to give your shares to a cousin, the company rules allow it, but an unrelated person cannot invest. This is similar to a Private Limited Company- a “closed group” with special membership rules.
Maharashtra State Board: Class 11
Key Point Summary
- 2-200 members only.
- Cannot invite the public for investment.
- Deposits only from insiders (members, directors, relatives).
- Private Limited must be in the company’s name.
- Ownership and decisions are kept within a closed group.
