Minority Shareholders are those shareholders who do not have control over the management affairs of the company. These shareholders do not have enough voting rights to affect or alter the managerial descisions.

hello frds...
i want to put some light ..pls check...
minority is subjective term term as we all know...
a meeting/resolution/bussiness require 51% consent(ordinary resolution) rest 49% would b minority.
if 75% consent is required then rest 25% is minority
when 90% consent(section 395 etc) is required the rest 10% is minority
if 100% consent is required(section 372A etc)..then no minority...
is it fine wit u all???
