We must explain to you how all seds this mistakens idea denouncing pleasures and praising account.
A Public Limited Company (PLC) is a type of business that can raise funds from the public by issuing shares. It is registered under the Companies Act, 2013, and regulated by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA). A PLC must have at least three directors and seven shareholders, and it can have unlimited shareholders. Public companies are listed on the stock exchange, which makes it easier for them to raise large capital.
The main advantage of a PLC is that it allows you to expand your business with the help of public investment. It also builds trust among customers, suppliers, and investors. Since the company is a separate legal entity, the personal assets of its members are not at risk if the business suffers a loss.
To register a PLC, you’ll need documents like a PAN card, Aadhaar card, passport-sized photo, address proof of directors and shareholders, and proof of the business address. At CallmyCA, we take care of everything online — from document collection to getting your Certificate of Incorporation (COI).
