If you’re an investor, private limited companies are an important part of your investment portfolio. You may own shares in a public company that is listed on the stock exchange and trading under its name or trade stock in a private company that trades under the same name but is not publicly traded. But how do you invest in private companies? What are the advantages of investing in such companies? How do you buy shares at all costs?
You can invest in private limited companies in India through NRI Investment. The first step is to buy shares and debentures of the company, which will be done by subscribing to the issue under Regulation 3(11) of SEBI (Securities and Exchange Board of India) Notification No. SEBI/CMP/IN/2009-40 dated 27th November 2009.
