Private placement

Corporate & Other Laws

Limit of 50 person is mentioned in section 42. But company rules prescribes 200 persons as the maximum number of person for private placement offer . What to be considered? If the second offer of security of another kind is made within the completion of first issue of another security,will it be deemed public offer ? Kindly clarify me

If it Carries out new issue , unless previous issue's allotment is completed. Then, it would be termed as Public offer and All provisions of section 39 and 26 shall be complied by Company. Hope ! This may help to Clarify you.


Section 42 of the Act explains that ; Number of individuals in a private placement can't exceed A.) 50 OR B.) Number as prescribed. And Company rules, 2014 states that ; private placement can't exceed 200 individuals. As , in practical life - law is a theoretical provisions and Rules are implentations of law. Hence ; 200 limit shall be considered while private placement.

sorry I rechecked it, limit should be 200 but they did not mention how much at a specific time. I responded as per above reply but there is no such limit. Such issue should not exceed 200 and it applies for all type of securities

Stick to key words that's all. Write in point wise to attract examiner attention and underline if time permits
