Government company

Co Act 2013 276 views 6 replies

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.

So 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

As per view ,

Query 1 :- Government Company can hold the stake subject to approval of Ministry

Query 2 :- No , Section 2(45) clearly demarcates holding of 51% to be held by Central , State Government and partly by Central and partly by State (Other views solicited)  

 

Thank you Sir :)

Govt holding in this case is only 30% and hence it is not a Govt company.

 

Thank you Sir :)

 

govt bodies are not included in the definition of goverment,hence govt holding is 30% only....

Thank you Sir :)
