Further, it is a separate legal entity, i.e., the shareholders can enjoy the feature of limited liability. That also means that the liability of a shareholder is limited to the extent of the number of shares held by him\/her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, one more\nsignificant feature of this business format is perpetual succession. That means\nthe death, bankruptcy, or insolvency of any shareholder or member will not\naffect the life of the company.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Further, it shall be relevant to note that the requirement of a minimum of Rs 1 lakh paid-up share capital has been removed after the Companies (Amendment) Act 2015.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, the Vision, Objectives, Mission, and Limitations of a Private Limited Company are specified in the MOA (Memorandum of Association). In contrast, the AOA (Articles of Association) includes all the rules, regulations, and by-laws of the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Partnership_Firm\"><\/span>Partnership Firm<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In India, a partnership firm as a business format is carried on by 2 or more individuals. This format is based on the principal and agent relationship and is regulated and administered by the provisions of the Indian Partnership Act 1932.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Further, a Partnership Deed is an agreement signed between the partners of the partnership firm. This agreement contains details, such as the nature of the firm, the right and duties of partners and their profit and loss sharing ratios, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, a\npartnership firm does not enjoy the status of a separate legal entity. That\nmeans all the partners of this business structure cannot enjoy the feature of\nlimited liability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\"
