Public Limited Company Registration

Public Limited Company registration is the formal process by which a business transforms into a public limited company, as per the regulatory requirements. In a public limited company, ownership is distributed among the public through the issuance of shares traded on a stock exchange. The registration involves compliance with legal formalities, governance structures, and offering shares to the public, thereby converting the business into a publicly-traded entity with increased access to capital and a broad shareholder base.
