Private Limited Company registration is the most popular form of a “legal structure” for all businesses in India. A private limited company can have a minimum of two members and a maximum of fifty members. The directors of a private limited company have limited liability to their creditors and Banks/Creditors are allowed to sell only the assets of the company (when there is a scenario of default). The creditors do not have the authority to sell the personal assets of directors. Do ensure that your company is registered, for starting a company in India.
Register your company with at least two persons to act as the initial shareholder & director. The company can have up to 200 shareholders & 15 directors. The same person can become a director as well as shareholders.
One director of the company should be resident in India. A Person is known as a Resident Indian when he/she stays in India for over 120 days during the previous financial year. Citizenship is immaterial for this purpose.
For registration of the company, you need to submit the proof of Registered Office & NOC from the owner. You may register a company on a communication address in case of difficulty; however, within 60 days, the company must have registered address.
Invest as per the business's requirement, & as such, there is no prescribed minimum or maximum capital. However, the ROC Fee and the Stamp Duty is calculated on the authorized capital and the location of the registered office is also required.

A registered firm can file suit against third parties. So the rights of registered firms are safeguarded by law. But an unregistered firm or its partner cannot enforce its claim against the third parties or its co-partner.
The rights and privileges of new partners are also protected in registered firms. But if any partner fails to register himself, he will incur great risk, because he will not be in a position to file suit for his dues against his firms or his co-partners.
The property of the retired or deceased partner continues to be liable for the acts firm does after his death or retirement until public notice is served for the change to a registrar, so there is a strong inducement for partners.
