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.
Memory Tips
