Before initiating a business, one must be well informed of the different types of business set-ups and the implications of their structure. Here we discuss the basic differences between a Limited and <keyword id="2626746" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Private-Limited-Company">Private Limited company</keyword>. To start with, both public limited and private limited companies are forms of joint stock companies. We can say a joint stock company is a kind of business organization that has multiple owners. What is Private Limited Company? In a Private Limited company, a minimum of 2 owners must be there and the maximum number of owners is 50. In case of a private limited company, there are restrictions in place with regard to the transfer of shares. The shares of a private limited company cannot be transferred freely as can be done in the case of <keyword id="966996" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="public-limited-company">public limited company</keyword>. Know that the shares of a public limited company can be transferred without any restrictions on a stock exchange. A private limited company can never call in the public to buy its shares or debentures. It can also not accept deposits from the public other than its owners, directors or their relatives. The minimum paid up share <keyword id="691414" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="capital-requirement">capital requirement</keyword> for a private limited company is rupees one lakh. This means that the owners must first pool in a sum of rupees one lakh from their own pockets before starting the business towards the capital. Every private limited company must have the suffix “Private Limited” at the end of its name (Ex: XYZ Pvt. Ltd.). What is Public Limited Company? A public Limited Company is a kind of joint stock company that is not a private limited company in the first place. In case of a public company, there are no restrictions whatsoever on the transfer of shares. The shares of a public limited company can be transferred freely on stock exchanges. In a public limited company, there must be a minimum of 7 members and there is no upper limit to the number of members that a public limited company can have. The minimum paid up share capital requirement for a public limited company is rupees five lakhs. This means that the owners must first pool in a sum of rupees five lakhs from their own pockets before starting the business towards the capital. Every public limited company must have the suffix “Limited” at the end of its name (Ex: XYZ Ltd.). A public limited company must have a minimum of 3 directors. Directors are the representatives elected by the shareholders or owners to administer the business on their behalf. The directors of a public limited company must give their consent in writing to the Registrar to function as the director of the company. They must also sign an undertaking to acquire the qualification shares of the given public limited company. A public limited company can start its operations only when it has received a Certificate to commencement of business. A public limited company can call in the public to buy its shares. It can also accept deposits from the general public.

Difference between Public Limited and Private Limited Company

The type of entity to use is one of the biggest decisions while <keyword id="1369640" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Starting-a-business">starting a business</keyword>. One of the most important considerations in this connection is to decide whether you will have limited or unlimited liability as the owner. Understanding this difference and choosing the structure that will suit you can help save your personal assets from the business creditors. The main difference between a limited and <keyword id="6924775" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Unlimited-company">unlimited company</keyword> is in liabilities as given under. What is a limited liability company? Limited liability means that the liability of the owners or investors of a company is limited to the total amount of money which they have invested in the business. When the firm is registered as a limited liability firm, the owners of the company will be safe in the event the company goes bankrupt. To elaborate on this idea, ‘limited liability’ will imply that the owner’s losses are only limited to the proportion of their specific share and he or she cannot be made responsible for the losses that are beyond the share of their contribution. We can say ‘Corporation’ is the most popular kind of limited liability company. In a corporation, the owners are shareholders. Their liabilities are limited to the amount of funds they have invested. In case the company has to file for bankruptcy, the shareholders will only lose their investments in the firm. However, they will not be held liable for the losses that are beyond what they have contributed to the firm. In addition to the advantages, there are also some disadvantages in this model. The managers of a limited liability company are protected against any personal liability. This will mean that their assets cannot be seized for the sake of paying the losses. What is an unlimited liability company? We can say unlimited liability is just the opposite of limited liability. In this case, the liability that the owners and investors might have is not limited to the amount that they have contributed. This means that there is no limit to the losses that the owners or investors have to bear. Nevertheless, there are some strong benefits to investing in a company labelled as ‘unlimited liability’. In financial management, there is a popular phrase which says, “higher the risk, higher the returns”. This will hold good especially in case of unlimited liability companies. Since the risks in front of the investors is very high in case of the unlimited liability model, it is most likely that the investors will get a higher rate of return in the event the company performs well. How to say the difference between these two types of entities? Limited and unlimited liability mainly talk about the obligations that the owners have in front of them. They say whether the owners are obliged only in proportion to the sum they have invested in the company or if they can also be held liable personally in case of any losses. In the former case, the personal properties of the owners or investors will not be forfeited if the company suffers losses or goes bankrupt. In the latter case, the personal properties of the investors will also be at stake in the event the firm goes bankrupt.

However, the kind of response Titan Jewellery has seen from its audience during the lockdown proves that they are becoming more organised and want to be prepared in every field. With the volatility caused by COVID-led lockdown in the share market, consumers are turning to buy and invest in the yellow metal. Audience from metro cities, Tier I and Tier II are open to planning their long-term investments and are buying <keyword id="6379337" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="gold-jewellery">gold jewellery</keyword> to secure their future. As a result, Titan Jewellery saw 1 million visitors on its website, hinting that the market is slowly picking up its tide. To meet this demand from consumers, Titan decided to open 90% of its stores in India. The jewellery giant also upped its digital game by introducing video calling features, providing live assistance to consumers, facilitating appointment-based purchases and launching digital campaigns to help its consumers adjust to the new normal and address their queries phygitally. We further caught up with Ranjani Krishnaswamy, General Manager - Marketing, Jewellery Division, <keyword id="1824765" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Titan-company">Titan Company</keyword> Limited, who is optimistic about retail and jewellery industry’s future, to understand what else the brand has in its stores for the unlocking period, a few lessons the team has learnt during the lockdown and future of retail shopping in India. Excerpts: Q. Tell us a bit about your latest campaign. What is the idea behind it? How difficult was it to execute it considering the restrictions? As a responsible brand, Tanishq believes that every little act of kindness and support is a blessing earned. This campaign brings to life the concept of blessed gold which is fondly called Dua Ka Sona. The thought of crafting a campaign relevant to the current pandemic is based on empathy as an emotion. We are not just in the business of selling jewellery but we believe in valuing the craft and craftsman equally. It’s only when our Karigars thrive, we as a business will be purposeful and wholesome in its true sense. Through this campaign, we have attempted to showcase how our efforts during this pandemic translated into blessings. Dua Ka Sona 2.0 showcases the ethical, responsible and sustainable business practices employed by the brand since its inception. With an honest attempt to give back to the society, the brand has taken sincere and proactive steps to uplift and support the lives of karigars and help them deal with the effects of covid. Understanding and quickly nurturing the needs of the Karigars and community at large, Tanishq walked the complete mile to help more than 20,000 families in every way possible. From supplying essentials and medicines to the elderly, from providing food to over 15000 karigars and migrants to arranging special financial aid, from virtual up-skilling and vocational training to enable karigars to further polish their skill sets and strict adherence to sanitize and follow safety norms is all a part of the deeper Karigar connect program which have been showcased in the campaign. As a part of the Tata group, the very fabric of goodness is ingrained in our ethos. We further extended kindness in more ways by providing essentials, PPE’s and medicines to covid warriors and communities in need, thus helping the entire value chain involved in standing together in these trying times. Given the current restrictions, it was challenging to bring together this campaign in a no travel and no shoot scenario. Having said that, we were able to achieve the right balance of emotions and acts of kindness done in the covid context by borrowing some footage from the earlier campaign. Q. How difficult was the lockdown period for Tanishq? How are your preparations for unlocking going? What are the various precautions you have taken? The lockdown was tough on all businesses but I think staying positive and keeping a focus on the changing times has helped Tanishq stay optimistic and ahead of the curve. We launched e-Akshaya Tritiya during the lockdown and received a great positive response. We had close to 1+ million visitors/browsers on our website, indicating a lot of customer interest. The ticket size online has jumped 2.5 to 3 times than our usual online average ticket size. Today almost 90% of our stores are open and Tanishq customers are at the heart of everything we do. To make jewellery shopping experience seamless for our customers we introduced new digital features like video calling, live assistance and appointment based shopping at our stores and at Tanishq.co.in. Customers have the option of getting the products delivered at their doorstep or they can choose to visit the store by booking an appointment and try out the shortlisted products. We rolled out a ‘Gold Standard’ safety ebook that reiterates company’s commitment to safety and well-being of customers and its employees at the store. It covers all staff and customer touch points, entailing numerous safety measures, including contactless shopping and strict social distancing at all times. Now that stores are open, to disinfect jewellery, Tanishq is using UV Type C Chambers, safe for all metals. Q. What has your marketing strategy been during the lockdown? Did you modify your media mix, with marketing investments getting shifted from one medium to another? The core, or sole, of the brand hasn’t changed. What obviously changed was the medium. With the changing market and consumer behaviour, largely our focus has been on enhancing our digital platforms and taking the Omni channel route for marketing. The whole strategy has been about intensifying and recognising cohorts, and to be able to talk to them through digital, through our loyalty programs, through our stores, and build a more virtual relationship with them. Q. The pandemic and the lockdown has brought with it a lot of learning. What would you say have been your major learnings from this experience so far? The current pandemic and journey that we are going through is teaching us to pause, reflect, connect and move forward with resilience and positivity. But times like these urge us to be more agile, adaptable and turn a crisis into opportunities. Being fitter, faster, and stronger will be the key to managing ourselves, our ecosystem of partners &amp; Karigars &amp; more importantly in our service to our customers. Q. The kind of communications a brand comes up with during a crisis can either help win consumer trust and endear them to the brand or work completely the other way around. How did you ensure during the last months that you stay connected with your consumers? All throughout the lockdown, we were in constant touch with our consumers to check on their well-being through empathy calls and help was mobilized with delivery of essentials and medicines to our elderly customers wherever needed! Empathy was the need of the hour and Tanishq jumped headlong into this battle with the intention of helping out wherever and however India and our extended Tanishq family needed help. A significant part of the consumer journey in jewellery has been digitised like – Video calling, Virtual try on, Live chat on our website and book an appointment. These improved our assortment on lower and middle karatage products available on the website as per consumer demand and left no stone unturned to aid our consumers make their purchases online. Q. We are sure the future of retail and jewellery industry will never be the same. How are you making sure you opt to digital media, online selling policies and physical distancing need to help your consumer? I don’t think the future looks very bleak. Shopping trends and consumer shopping trends point towards an optimistic growth pattern and it’s a positive growth. We have developed our plan based on the vision of “Fitter Faster Stronger”. Fitter means being agile and adapting to the new normal with flexibility. Faster means the speed of execution to adapt to rapidly changing consumer preferences &amp; behaviours. And stronger means to come together to reach out and help each other to build back the value chain for the jewellery industry. Digital media is one of our core platforms for consumer engagement and we have built a virtual relationship with the Tanishq community. Engagement campaigns like real golden moments, Mother's day and Jewellery cleaning posts in the last 2 months were highly engaging and gave us higher than targeted engagement percentages. Tech features like live chats and remote selling through video calls are working well for us. Our store attendants showcase the jewellery by wearing it so customers are sure of how it looks before buying it. Physical distancing has also been enabled at stores where we’ve changed layouts so not more than 1-2 customers are inside the store shopping at any given point. Safety will be key for consumers and as India’s leading only national jeweller we have created safe, tech-supported, and digitized dynamic innovative ways of shopping.

It's called the Truth in Advertising Act 2016.This act started as pledge. It was first written up in 2014 in partnership with the <a href="http://www.bravegirlswant.com/truth-in-ads-heroes-pledge.html" target="_blank">Brave Girls Alliance</a>, but now, clothing company ModCloth is working virulently to make something happen: it was the first retailer to sign the pledge, and the company recently went to Washington D.C. to raise awareness for the act. It's also launching a letter writing campaign to help get the act moving.This act would thereby guidelines for airbrushing (though it wouldn't entirely eliminate it; it's a necessary evil that sometimes can eliminate a wrinkle in apparel, for instance).It would, however, force companies to refrain from "materially changing models in advertising in the same way you can't claim that a car can drive you 500 miles an hour and ... fly," ModCloth founder Susan Gregg Koger said to Business Insider in a phone interview."I'm not a politician, but I'm 31-years-old ... I'm in the fashion industry," she said. "I understand what can go on behind the scenes with photo shoots and understand even though we [ModCloth] don't materially alter images, I understand how it can work. But emotionally it's ... tough to be surrounded by advertising where you're seeing unrealistic ideal of beauty looks." "I know that if I feel that way then younger people feel that way as well," she said.

"<keyword id="1062175" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="tata-steel-board" source="Orion">Tata Steel Board</keyword> approves the amalgamation of strategic businesses into the company," the statement said. The Board also approved the amalgamation of <keyword id="342421" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="trf-limited" source="Orion">TRF Limited</keyword> (34.11 per cent equity), an associate company of Tata Steel, into <keyword id="4252143" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="tata-steel-limited" source="Orion">Tata Steel Limited</keyword>.

New Delhi, <keyword id="47209" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="finance-ministry" source="Orion">Finance Ministry</keyword> would consider capital infusion in three loss-making public sector general insurance companies based on their financial performance of nine months. The infusion if required would be made in the fourth quarter of the current financial year, sources said. According to sources, the finance ministry last year asked three insurers -- National Insurance Company Limited, <keyword id="94451" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="oriental-insurance-company-limited" source="Orion">Oriental Insurance Company Limited</keyword> and <keyword id="356117" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="united-india-insurance-company" source="Orion">United India Insurance Company</keyword> -- to chase bottomlines rather than topline and underwrite only good proposals. The financial review would give some idea about the impact of restructuring initiated on the profitability numbers and the solvency margin, sources said. The solvency margin is the extra capital the companies must hold over and above the claim amounts they are likely to incur. It acts as a financial backup in extreme situations, enabling the company to settle all claims. The government last year provided Rs 5,000 crore capital to three insurers -- National Insurance Company Limited, Oriental Insurance Company Limited and United India Insurance Company. Kolkata-based National Insurance Company Limited was given the highest, Rs 3,700 crore, followed by Delhi-based Oriental Insurance Company Limited (Rs 1,200 crore) and Chennai-based United India Insurance Company (Rs 100 crore). According to sources these companies have been asked to improve their solvency ratio and meet the regulatory requirement of 150 per cent. The solvency ratio is a measure of capital adequacy. A higher ratio reflects better financial health and the ability of the company to pay claims and meet future contingencies and business growth plans. Barring the solvency ratio of <keyword id="6369780" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="new-india-assurance" source="Orion">New India Assurance</keyword>, this key indicator of the three public sector general insurance companies stood below the regulatory requirement of 150 per cent. During 2019-20, the government infused Rs 2,500 crore in these three companies. It increased substantially to Rs 9,950 crore in the following year and Rs 5,000 crore in 2021-22. In all, the government infused Rs 17,450 crore into these insurance firms so far to improve their financial health. Public sector general insurance companies are undergoing various reforms, including organisational restructuring, product rationalisation, cost rationalisation and digitalisation. For efficient use of capital and to push profitable growth, the sources said, a set of key performance indicators linked reforms have been initiated by all public sector general insurance companies effective 2020-21, when the maximum capital infusion was made. Of the four state-run general insurance companies only New India Assurance Company is listed on the stock exchanges, the remaining three are wholly owned by the government. The government has already announced its intention to privatise one general insurance company. To facilitate privatisation, Parliament has already approved amendments to the General Insurance Business (Nationalisation) Act (GIBNA). Finance Minister <keyword id="129243" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="nirmala-sitharaman" source="Orion">Nirmala Sitharaman</keyword> in the Budget 2021-22 announced a big-ticket privatisation agenda, which included two public sector banks and one general insurance company. "We propose to take up the privatisation of two public sector Banks and one general insurance company in the year 2021-22. This would require legislative amendments," she had said.

Then, on Saturday, Musk <a href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1675187969420828672?s=46&amp;t=0K7zLyMZdVYljqlGABmGpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener">announced that Twitter</a> will temporarily limit how many tweets users can read per day.Musk said both changes were meant to address "data scraping and system manipulation."Hundreds of companies were "scraping Twitter data extremely aggressively," <a href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1674937248851144704?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Musk said on Friday</a>, adding that social media companies without an authentication process were at risk of becoming "bot-strewn hellscapes."Verified users, which are largely accounts subscribed to Musk's <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/best-memes-about-elon-musk-twitter-blue-chaos-2023-4">troubled Twitter Blue program</a>, will be able to read 6,000 posts per day, while unverified and newly created unverified accounts will be able to see just 600 and 300 posts per day, respectively, Musk said on Twitter.It's unclear how Twitter will count a post as read, whether it will mean just scrolling past a tweet, or actually interacting with the tweet in some way. However, it appears that the change could be what caused thousands of users to have problems seeing new tweets on their feeds <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/twitter-went-down-for-thousands-users-saturday-error-message-2023-7">Saturday morning</a>.The decision was met with confusion and seemingly, new motivation to seek out other platforms, as Elon, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/dorsey-bluesky-invite-social-exclusive-waitlist-no-heads-of-state-2023-5">BlueSky</a>, Jack Dorsey, Tumblr, Twitter Blue, Mastodon, and <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/guides/tech/what-is-hive-social-media-app">Hive</a> were all trending Saturday afternoon. Musk <a href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1674942336583757825?s=20">tweeted</a> Friday that the requirement to sign in would be "unlocked shortly" and that it was vital to take swift action to prevent the data scraping. He said Twitter had to fire up backup servers to cope with increased traffic on the site. "It is rather galling to have to bring large numbers of servers online on an emergency basis just to facilitate some AI startup's outrageous valuation," he said. The billionaire called for other solutions after Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney <a href="https://twitter.com/TimSweeneyEpic/status/1674860397617111059?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener">tweeted</a> that Twitter was "account walled" and that browsing the site "feels horrible."Musk <a href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1674887204580073474?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener">replied</a> by saying that the data scraping was affecting users' experience. "What should we do to stop that? I'm open to ideas," he asked. Sweeney <a href="https://twitter.com/TimSweeneyEpic/status/1674893098252378114?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener">suggested</a> banning scraping in Twitter's terms of service, protecting itself with infosec engineering, and taking legal action against companies commercially abusing the site on a large scale.Musk responded and <a href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1674898695534309378?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a>: "1. Scraping is already disallowed by T&amp;C. 2. The scraping orgs dgaf &amp; mask their IPs through proxy servers or through orgs that appear legit. For example, a recent massive scraping operation originating from Oracle IP addresses was just using their servers as a laundromat. 3. We absolutely will take legal action against those who stole our data &amp; look forward seeing them in court, which is (optimistically) 2 to 3 years from now." The SpaceX founder <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/elon-musk-openai-twitter-data-pay-dispute-2023-4?r=US&amp;IR=T">shut down OpenAI's access to Twitter</a> in December because he reportedly felt the company wasn't paying enough for it to license the platform's data, per <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2023/04/27/technology/elon-musk-ai-openai.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The New York Times</a>. OpenAI was paying about $2 million a year to scrape Twitter's data to help build its AI chatbot, according to the report. Twitter <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/twitter-automatically-responds-to-press-emails-with-a-poop-emoji-2023-3">did not immediately respond</a> to a request for comment from Insider.
