Overview

What is a Public Limited Company?

A Public Limited Company is a company that can offer its shares to the public and, if it chooses, list on a recognised stock exchange. It requires a minimum of three directors and seven shareholders, and is registered under the Companies Act, 2013 with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs.

It is the preferred structure for businesses that plan to raise large amounts of capital or grow into a listed entity. KNAP Advisory manages the full incorporation and guides you on the higher compliance that comes with a public structure.
