• A. Yes
• B. No
• C. Nothing written in law about it
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is B No

A private company is the one which has a minimum paid up share capital of Rs. 100000 or such higher capital as prescribed by the Companies Act. Its Article of association mentions that the company restricts the right to transfer its shares; limits the number of its members from 2 to 50.

Thus it is clear that the company did not crossed its maximum limit as there will be 49 members only.
