controlling interest

This query is : Resolved 

22 December 2008 Pls solve my query urgently.............
when a company called to have acquired the controlling interest in another co.,
I've seen Section 4 of the companies act, 1956 but still have a doubt, with regards to 51%, of what? that whether it is just 51% of paid up share capital or authorised share or subscribed share capital?
Or whether it is 51% of equity share capital
Or 51% sum of paid equity + Prefe. share capital
Or 51% of paid equity +pref.share capital+debentures?
pls reply as per the prov. of the act.

Usually controlling interest comes from Equity Shares only..So some time equity shares are called controlling shares..

It is 51% of paid up capital..bcz unless it is issued u can not hold interest in the authorised capital.

hope u r clear
