A Public Limited Company, legally known as PLC, is a Publicly-held Company. It is a limited company whose shares can be traded with the public. PLC can be listed or not listed on the stock exchanges. PLC requires a minimum of three directors as a prerequisite.
A Private Limited Company, or LTD, is a Privately-held Company. This implies that the business limits owner liability to its shares and limits the number of shareholders to 50. It also restricts shareholders from trading shares publicly.
We have enlisted some advantages of having your Company registered as or converted to a Private Limited Company. It is the world's most commonly used business model and offers several advantages to its model subscribers.
The liability of shareholders is limited to their shares. Financial risks are a part of the business, but minimizing them and sustaining the business's progress are imperative. In an LTD, if, due to any reason, the Company were to be closed, the shareholders would not risk losing their personal assets.
The risk of takeovers is minimized when two shareholders trade shares, as the selling and buying of shares, are possible only when both parties have given their consent.
Private limited companies are incorporated; hence it continues to exist even if the owner dies.
Unlike Public Limited, LTD is not obliged to disclose its finances to the public.
It enjoys fewer legal restrictions as compared to a Public Limited Company. There is a necessity to call for a general meeting of members in Public Limited, whereas there is no such compulsion in Private Limited.
The Public Company needs a Certificate of Commencement of Business to start a business after incorporation. In contrast, a Private Company can start its business just after receiving a Certificate of Incorporation.
