@ MPR ,Even the Govt(s) are holding less than 51% may sometimes consider or continue to get the status quo of Govt Companies ,Because of Control by one or more Govt ,So ,It's a true as per the act that to classify company as govt company min 51% by Govt(s) is required but sometimes the terms include in AOA or any act/special provision in other statute also be taken into account
