Frequently asked questions

What is the minimum requirement for a Public Limited Company?

Contact us to know the exact pricing for your requirement. Minimum paid-up capital is no longer mandated by statute.

Can a Public Limited Company raise funds from the public?

Yes. A Public Limited Company can raise funds through a public issue of shares or debentures, subject to SEBI regulations and prospectus requirements. Private placement is also available without a public listing.

What are the AGM requirements?

A public company must hold its AGM within the period prescribed under the Companies Act, 2013, maintain statutory minutes and records, and file such resolutions and returns with the Registrar as are required under applicable law.

Is statutory audit mandatory?

Yes. Every Public Limited Company must have its accounts audited annually by a Chartered Accountant, and file audited financial statements with MCA (Form AOC-4).

What is the difference between a listed and unlisted Public Limited Company?

An unlisted Public Limited Company can offer shares privately without SEBI approval. A listed company has its shares traded on a recognised stock exchange (NSE/BSE) and must comply with SEBI LODR Regulations in addition to the Companies Act.
