What is Conversion of Public Limited Company to Private Limited Company?

Conversion of a Public Limited Company to a Private Limited Company is a legal process under the Companies Act, 2013. It involves altering the Articles of Association (AOA) and Memorandum of Association (MOA) of the company, obtaining shareholder approval, and filing necessary forms with the Registrar of Companies (ROC).
