What to Focus On
- A company is a legal entity formed under the Companies Act, 2013.
- It has a separate legal identity and perpetual succession.
- Shareholders enjoy limited liability and can transfer shares easily.
- Statutory companies are formed by special acts; registered companies by the Companies Act.
- Liability can be limited by shares, guarantee, or unlimited.
- Private companies restrict share transfer and limit members; public companies do not.
- Shares represent ownership in a company.
- Preference shares get fixed dividends and priority in repayment.
- Equity shares carry variable dividends and full voting rights.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Private companies can issue shares to the public through advertisements or prospectuses.
Equity shareholders get a fixed rate of dividend every year, just like preference shareholders.
Authorised capital and issued capital are the same thing.
