02 August 2016 Government Company: means any Company in which not less than 51% (fifty one per cent). of the paid-up share capital is held by:-

♠ The Central Government, or Any State Government or Governments, or Partly by the Central Government and partly by one or more State Governments, or includes a Company which is a Subsidiary Company of such a Government Company;

My query is.. one company A ltd. is a public limited which 30% stake held by state govt. directly and 10% held by government bodies and one another Government Company wants to hold 15% stake of that company.
my question is, Can a Government company can hold stake of A ltd. ??
If that govt. company will hold that stake then status of A ltd. will be called Government ??
please suggest

02 August 2016 if the holding of Govt exceeds 51 %, A ltd will be regarded as Govt Company

02 August 2016 sir, but government company can hold stake ??? bcz definition includes subsidiary of govt company .

03 August 2016 what is your exact query/difficulty?
Are you interested in knowing whether Govt company OR How govt company?
whether......the answer is yes.
How?..... Govt normally does not acquire any company by such method...rather, It floats a new company
Forming a govt company by acquiring shares in private/public company is not the way followed by Govt.
