personify the characteristics of a limited company?

Answer»

Characteristics of the private limited company
Members– To start a company, a minimum number of 2 members are required and a maximum number of 200 members as per the provisions of the companies act 2013.

Limited Liability– The liability of each member or shareholders is limited. It means that if a company faces loss under any circumstances then its shareholders are liable to sell their own assets for payment. The personal, individual assets of the shareholders are not at risk. 

Perpetual succession– The company keeps on existing in the eyes of law even in the case of death, insolvency, the bankruptcy of any of its members. This leads to the perpetual succession of the company. The life of the company keeps on existing forever.

Index of members– A private company has a privilege over the public company as they don’t have to keep an index of its members whereas the public company is required to maintain an index of its members.

A number of directors– When it comes to directors a private company needs to have only two directors. With the existence of 2 directors, a private company can come into operations.

Paid up capital– It must have a minimum paid-up capital of Rs 1 lakh or such higher amount which may be prescribed from time to time. 

Prospectus– Prospectus is a detailed statement of the company affairs which is issued by a company for its public. However, in the case of a private limited company, there is no such need to issue a prospectus because in this public is not invited to subscribe for the shares of the company.

Minimum subscription– It is the amount received by the company which is 90% of the shares issued within a certain period of time. If the company is not able to receive 90% of the amount then they cannot commence further business. In the case of a private limited company, shares can be allotted to the public without receiving the minimum subscription.

Name– It is mandatory for all the private companies to use the word private limited after its name.

  • Always buy LPG cylinders from authorized franchisees only 
  • Check that the cylinder has been delivered with the company seal and safety cap intact, do not accept the cylinder if the seal is broken. 
  • Please look for the due date of test, which is marked on the inner side of the cylinder stay plate and if this date is over, do not accept the cylinder 
  • Disconnect LPG regulator and affix safety cap on the cylinder when your gas stove is not in use for prolonged period. 
  • Always store the LPG cylinder in an upright position and away from other combustible and flammable materials.
  • Check for gas leaks regularly by applying soap solution on cylinder joints and Surakshapipes.
24367.

Will total internal reflection take place when light passing through water is incident on the surface of separation with air at an angle of incidence of 45°? Why?

Answer»

No. The critical angle of water 48.6°. You have already realized that total internal re- flection takes place only if the angle of incidence is greater than the critical angle. The total internal reflection takes place when in the incident ray is more than 48.6°

The height of the object height of the image depends on the ratio of the distance to the object and distance to the image. When the object is kept at different positions, the height of the image can be varied.

24374.

What happens while it goes from glass to air?

Answer»

Deviates away from the normal. Normal. While entering from glass to air (from a medium of greater optical density to that of a lower one) the refracted ray deviates away from the normal.

24375.

While going from air to glass, the refracted ray deviates towards the normal/deviates away from the normal.

Answer»

Deviates towards the normal. While entering from air to glass (from a medium of lower optical density to that of a greater one) the refracted ray deviates away from the normal.

24376.

What is family

Answer»

A family is a group of two or more persons related by birth, marriage, or adoption who live together; all such related persons are considered as members of one family.

Read the following lines from the poem Twice a week the Winter Thorough and write an appreciation focusing on the theme, imagery and other poetic devices. Twice a week the winter thorough Here stood I to keep the goal ; Football then was fighting sorrow For the young man's soul.Now in May time to the wicket Out I march with bat and pad: See the son of grief at cricket Trying to be glad. Try I will; no harm in trying: Wonder 'tis how little mirth Keeps the bones of man from lying On the bed of earth.

Answer»

Twice a Week the Winter Thorough’ is a poem by Alfred Edward Housman. The poem describes that success and failure are the two sides of the same coin. One must accept both triumph and defeat in a true sportsman spirit. The poet talks of his youthful days when he used to fight his sorrow and sadness by playing football. It was a common belief that playing games helps fight sadness and frustration. The poet feels that trying to keep sadness away will help a lot. The poem is a beautiful depiction of his feelings when he was young and his efforts to overcome the sadness.

The poet has made use of alliteration at many places like week-winter, football-fighting and see-son. The rhyme scheme of the poem is abab throughout the poem.

Write an article on career day function celebration in your school

Answer»

The goal of career day is to introduce students to careers by bringing community members into the school to discuss their jobs. Career day may encompass the entire student body or just seniors. Here are some tips for planning yours.

1. Enlist a career day planning team to organize and carry out major tasks.
2. Determine how many students will attend. Career day is best assigned to half of a typical school day. Mornings are most convenient for guest speakers to be excused from work.
3. Develop a master schedule for the event. 
4. Invite guest speakers at least three months in advance and provide a formal invitation explaining and highlighting the event. Try to keep careers interesting and represent a variety. Send, call or e-mail reminders to speakers two weeks prior to the event.
5. Recruit a group of student volunteers to guide and escort speakers as they enter and exit campus. Student volunteers should wear school logos to be easily recognized. 
6. Advertise the event to the students as well as to the community. Offer incentives for students to attend. Use the newspaper’s free community announcement section. 7. Visit classrooms to present the event to students. Provide students with a menu of speakers and the schedule. Students must understand the concept of the day and choose presentations carefully.

8. Organize a welcome session as a prelude to the event. An administrator should greet speakers and provide a short thank-you speech. Light refreshments may be provided. Students will escort speakers to classrooms. 

9. Assign teachers to classrooms to monitor student behavior, serve as a liaison for speakers and collect event evaluations from speakers and students.
10. Implement a training session for all staff so that all are available to assist and support the event.

The place stank of burnt fuel. But I could find no survivors. During the afternoon, I heard the noise of aircraft engines. I knew it was senseless, but I yelled, "Hello ! Help!" over and over again. They must have been quite near, though I never saw them and, of course, they didn't spot me. Then the noise of the planes faded and I was again alone. But I was not disheartened; I could walk. I wasn't hungry and I could drink from the clear stream.I. Why does the writer feel that nights in the jungle are attractive only in films ? II. "I knew it was senseless". What was senseless ?
