Convert Private Limited to Public Limited: Guide

Converting a private limited company to a public company enables businesses to raise capital, enhance visibility, and offer liquidity to shareholders. The process involves board and shareholder approval, amending the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and meeting the minimum capital requirement. The company must file the amended documents with the Registrar of Companies (RoC) to obtain a conversion certificate. If listed on the stock exchange, it must comply with SEBI regulations. While offering growth opportunities and access to public investors, the conversion also brings challenges like increased regulatory scrutiny and higher compliance costs. Post-conversion, the company must adhere to governance standards and ongoing reporting obligations.
