Advantages of Public Limited Company Registration
1. Separate Legal Entity:
A company is a legal entity and a juristic person established under the Companies Act, 2013. Therefore a company form of organization has wide legal capacity and can own property and also incur debts. The members (Shareholders/Directors) of a company have no personal liability to the creditors of a company for such debts.
2. Easy Transferability:
The Shares are freely transferable by a shareholder to any other person. Filing and signing of a share transfer form and handing over the buyer of the shares along with share certificates followed by intimation to the Company is enough to transfer the shares.
3. Uninterrupted Existence:
A company has ‘perpetual succession’, which means continued / uninterrupted existence until it is legally dissolved. A company, being a separate legal person, is unaffected by the death or other departure of any member but continues to be in existence irrespective of the changes in membership.
4. Owning Property:
A company being a juristic person, can acquire, own and alienate property in its own name. No shareholder can make any claim upon the property of the company so long as the company is a going concern.
5. Borrowing Capacity:
A company enjoys better avenues for borrowing of funds. It can issue secured / unsecured debentures, and can also accept deposits from the public, etc. Even banking and financial institutions prefer to render large financial assistance to a company rather than partnership firms or proprietary concerns.
