Talk to a Company Registration ExpertWhat is a Private Limited Company?
A private limited company is a privately held business entity registered with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) under the Companies Act, 2013. It is a separate legal entity from its owners, offers limited liability to shareholders, and is the most preferred structure for startups that plan to raise funding or scale.
A private limited company needs a minimum of two directors and two shareholders, and can have up to 200 members. If you are a solo founder, you may prefer a One Person Company, and if you want a simpler partnership-style structure, a Limited Liability Partnership may suit you better.
Who Should Register a Private Limited Company?
- Startups and founders planning to raise equity or venture capital.
- Businesses that want limited liability and a distinct legal identity.
- Companies seeking credibility with banks, vendors and investors.
- Promoters planning to add shareholders or employee stock options later.
- Foreign investors setting up an Indian subsidiary in India.
