What is a Private Limited Company?
A Private Limited Company is a business structure registered under the Companies Act, 2013 (as amended up to 2025), offering limited liability protection and a distinct legal identity separate from its owners. It is the most popular business structure in India for startups, SMEs, and growth-focused entrepreneurs.
It can have a minimum of 2 and maximum of 200 shareholders, with shares not freely transferable to the public โ ideal for closely-held businesses wanting structure without going public.
Why is it India's #1 startup structure?
A Pvt. Ltd. gives your business legal credibility, limited liability, and investor readiness โ while keeping control in your hands. Banks, VCs, and enterprise clients all prefer dealing with a Pvt. Ltd. over a proprietorship or partnership.
