Why Private Limited?

The most credible structure for startups, funded businesses, and anyone serious about growth.

01

Limited Liability

Shareholders' personal assets are protected. Company liabilities stay with the company — not you personally.

02

Investor-Ready

VCs, angel investors, and banks only fund Pvt Ltd companies. Equity can be issued via shares.

03

Separate Legal Entity

The company can own property, enter contracts, and sue/be sued in its own name — independent of its owners.

04

Perpetual Existence

The company continues regardless of changes in directors or shareholders. Business continuity is guaranteed.

Legal Framework

Private Limited Companies are governed by the Companies Act 2013 and regulated by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA).

Companies Act 2013, Section 2(68): "Private company" means a company having a minimum paid-up share capital as may be prescribed, which restricts the right to transfer its shares, limits the number of its members to 200, and prohibits any invitation to the public to subscribe for its securities.

Section 7: Incorporation requires filing SPICe+ form with MOA, AOA, and requisite declarations with the Registrar of Companies (ROC).
