Running a Pvt Ltd Company

Need advice !

A friend of mine who is running a Pvt Ltd. Company in Mumbai, India, all by himself wants me to join hands with him, due to my experience in the corporate world. The investment in manageable, but  I will be sacrificing a steady job and taking a risk. Therefore, how does one make sure that he/she becomes a part of the company, is in control of the strategic decisons & also gets a fair share of the profits.

In anticipation !

Thanks !

1. By becoming Shareholder you will get as much stake in company as many no. of shares allotted to you. There are two way to get money from the company:- a) Remuneartion; b) Dividend (on shares you are holding) 2. For the purpose of Control; you can become director in that company and excercise day to day control on managing the issues as well as formulating the strategies. Regards,

Thanks Vivek.

As about the "day to day control on managing the issues as well as formulating the strategies" - does this depend on the number of shares that one holds ? There are currently 2 directors in the company. I will become the 3rd Director.

Hi

you should become director so you have control over the affairs of the company and also well aware about the day today affairs of the company.

HI Hardik,

Is there any minimum shareholding advised so that you do not get over ruled in the decision making process.

Thx

Shyles

There is no specific ceiling. However person or group of person holding 10% of voting power are eligible for appointed as Director.But in your case attend every board meeting so you are aware about the affairs of the company. Also check out the financial affairs of the company.

THe best is you can frame the shareholders agreement in which you can draft the conditions which you want.

 Hi Bhakti,

Thanks.

Is it possible to get a sample of a "shareholders agreement" somewhere ?

Regards

You can get it in a book on agreement or google it out.

I am providing one link below:

Dear Shyles,

 

Just hold a good number of Shares and become the Director (Whole Time Director) of the Company. This would solve your all problems.

 

1. You would get earning by way of remuneration and dividend etc.

 

2. You would be the part of every decision of the Board as well as Company.
