21 June 2013 Section 2(7)of Companies Act, 1956 defines body corporate includes a company incorporated outside India but does not include-
1. a corporation sole;
2. a co-operative society registered under any law relating to co-operative societies;
3. any other body corporate which Central Government may by notification in the Offical Gazette , specify in this behalf.

* Does it mean that societies which are not registered under co- operative society Act falls under deifnition of body corporate?

* What does corporation sole means?

06 July 2013 No,,registered or not registered co-operative society is not a body corporate

in short only LLP and company under compnaies act is co-operative society
