Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies that a company limited by shares can indeed be registered with zero authorised and issued capital. While possible, this setup means no shares can be issued, potentially limiting future capital raising and dividend payments. The conversation also touches upon why a company might choose this structure if immediate capital needs are not a concern.

Yes, it is possible for a company limited by shares to have zero authorized and issued capital.

In some cases, a company may choose to have a zero authorized capital, which means that it is not authorized to issue any shares. In other cases, a company may have a small authorized capital but choose not to issue any shares, keeping the issued capital also at zero.

However, it's important to note that having zero authorized and issued capital may limit the company's ability to raise capital through the issuance of shares. It may also affect the company's ability to pay dividends to its shareholders, as there may be limited funds available for distribution.
