Further Issue of Preference Shares By a Pvt. Ltd. Co.

Hello!

Plz. dnt confuse the term preferential issue and Preference share.....Preference share is a kind of share and preferential issue means to issue further share to existing shareholder of Co...........

Sec 81 is nt at all applicable to pvt. co.

And i dnt think that there is any limit of quantum to issue preference share as per Co. Act. 

Further any learned member pl. advice

Hi Nidhi,

Thanks for your reply.

I know there is a difference between Preferential Issue and Issue of preference shares.

What I wanted to confirm was that preferential issue guidelines are not applicable to Private Companies.

Best Regards

Hi

I don't think section 81 applies on further allotment of preference shares.

Dear Nidhi

Capital means equity as well as preference. Whether section 81 is applicable on further allotment of preference shares??

Hello!

As per my view Sec 81 would be  applicable on Equity as well as preference share. Bt nt applicable on Pvt. Co.

Any contrary views are welcomed.......

Dear Sir

Can you advise me that whether preference shareholder be counted as member for limit of 50 members in case of Private Limited company ?

Dear Mr. Vasant,

Please refer Section 41 of the Companies Act, 1956 with regard to definition of "Member". Accordingly, only equity shareholders can be regarded as member. Further, no company can issued irredeemable preference shares, so the life of the preference shares are limited and also the rights of  the preference shareholders are very specific and not general as in the case of equity shareholders.
