2Answer
A company is a legal entity with the following key features:
- Artificial Person: Created by law, not by natural birth, and can sue or be sued in its own name.
- Separate Legal Entity: Distinct from its members; owns property, incurs liabilities, and enters contracts independently.
- Perpetual Succession: Continues to exist until legally dissolved, unaffected by member changes.
- Limited Liability: Shareholders’ liability is limited to unpaid shares (private companies) or assets (public companies).
- Common Seal: Used to authenticate documents (though digital signatures are now accepted in Nepal).
- Transferability of Shares: Shares can be freely transferred (subject to company rules), enhancing liquidity.
- Democratic Management: Operated by a Board of Directors elected by shareholders, with major decisions requiring shareholder approval.
- Legal Formalities: Must comply with statutory requirements (e.g., Companies Act 2063) for registration, reporting, and operations.
