PRIVATE LIMITED COMPANY 

A company is limited by shares if the liability of its members is limited by the memorandum to the amount, if any, unpaid on the shares respectively held by them. A search is conducted to establish if the proposed name is available for registration. The name must end with the expression “Limited” or the abbreviation “LTD”. However the applicant may make an application to dispense with the word “limited”
