What to Focus On

  • Formation of a company has three stages: promotion, incorporation, and subscription of capital.
  • A private company does not issue a prospectus or complete minimum subscription.
  • A public company must follow the full capital subscription process before starting business.
  • Promotion is the first stage in company formation.
  • A promoter is the person or group who forms and sets up the company.
  • Experts who assist in feasibility studies do not become promoters just because they assist.
  • Feasibility studies check technical, financial, and economic viability.
  • Technical feasibility relates to availability of material and technology.
  • Financial feasibility relates to availability of funds.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Promotion, incorporation, and capital subscription are all the same stage.

Any expert who advises during feasibility studies becomes a promoter.

Promoters are agents or trustees of the company.
