A company will be accredited as a Small company if it fulfills both, the criteria of having paid-up share 50 lakh or less than it and a turnover of 2 crores or less than it.<\/p>\n

Even though both the holding company and subsidiary company may fulfill the capital and turnover requirement of a small company, they will still fall outside the purview of a small company. Accordingly, the benefits and exemptions which are available to a small company cannot be applied to a company that is a holding a subsidiary company.<\/p>\n
