Private Limited Company Registration

Overview

A Private Limited Company Registration is the most common type of corporate legal registration in India. Registrar of Companies (ROC) designated under Section 396(2) of the Companies Act, 2013 by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), is conferred with the primary duty of registering companies and of ensuring that such companies cooperate with the legal provisions of the Act.

A company shall be registered with the state’s ROC under whose authority the proposed company’s registered office will be located. It can be started with at least two Directors (only Individuals) and two Shareholders (Individuals or Corporate entities). Directors, as well as Shareholders, may or may not be the same person.

A Private Limited Company is chosen because it guarantees limited liability and gives a separate legal entity to the business. The company incorporation procedure results in clear ownership of the company specified by the share capital. Incorporation of a company is the first step in expanding your business as it opens the way for external investment while allowing you to attract top talent by giving stock options. However, one has to accept compulsory audits and higher compliance, which could be challenging to maintain. On the other side, higher compliance will give better reliability to your business than any other form of company incorporation in India

It is mandatory to add private limited (Pvt ltd.) to the name of a private limited company India.

Advantages

Not only one or two, but there are various reasons why you should go for private limited company registration. Let’s find out what they are:

  • Simple Registration Process

    Private Limited Company can be registered by only two or more individuals, by complying with the specifically limited formalities according to the Companies Act, 2013.

  • Limited Liability

    Limited liability is one of the main advantages of a Private Limited Company. When any legal liability occurs, then it is neither a member nor its directors who are directly affected; the responsibility of the members is only for the unpaid amount of shares owned by them and not more than that. Shareholders are not accountable for the liabilities and debts of the company.

  • Separate Legal Entity

    One of the important advantages of a Private Limited Company is that it is separate from its members. A company is a separate entity that has its rights & Obligations.

  • Perpetual Succession

    A company with 'perpetual succession' has ongoing or continuous existence until it is legally dissolved. Being a different legal entity, the company is not influenced by any member’s death but remains to be in existence.

  • Easy Transferability

    Private Limited Company's shares are readily transferable to any other individual by a member. There are no tedious formalities.

  • Owning Property

    A company is a separate legal entity, who can own, purchase, enjoy and transfer or sale, property on their name. No member or shareholder can make any allegation upon the company’s property as long as the company is a successful business.

  • Minimum Compliance

    A Private Limited Company is expected to do fewer legal procedures as compared to a Public Limited Company. It gets special freedoms and rights under the Companies Act, 2013. So, in Private Limited Company, less number of compliance is needed.
