Total membership of these companies cannot exceed 50.

The shares allotted to it’s members are also not freely transferable.

These companies are not allowed to raise money from the public through open invitation.

They are required to use “Private Limited” after their names.

Public Ltd.

A minimum of seven members are required to form a public limited company.

It must have minimum paid-up capital of Rs 5 lakhs.

There is no restriction on maximum number of members.

The shares allotted to the members are freely transferable.

These companies can raise funds from general public through open invitations by selling its shares or accepting fixed deposits.
