Designing a new organisation structure or reorganizing an existing one needs careful consideration of current practices and principles of organisation. There are no such rules the application of which will lead to the best organisation structure in every situation. But the steps mentioned below could be of great help in designing suitable structure:

1. Clear definition of Objectives: The first steps in developing an organisation structure is to have very clear objectives. This will help in determining the type and the basic characteristics of the organisation.

2. Identifying the activities and Grouping them into classes: The next step in developing an organisation is to list the activities necessary to achieve the objectives and grouping them in a systematic manner. These activities can be assigned to personnel.

3. Determine the Structure: With the help of above two steps, actual determination of the organisation structure can be set.

4. Revise the structure on the basis of assessment of Personnel: The last step in developing a suitable organisation structure is to assess the capabilities and abilities of people available for the different positions in the organisation. The ideal organisation should then be adapted to fit the reality of the situation.

The above outlined are the general guidelines for steps in developing the organisation structure. However, each enterprise should be viewed as separate case and developed accordingly.

Public Company

Public Company means a company which
- is not a private company.
- has a minimum paid up capital of five lakh rupees or higher paid up capital.

A public company may be said to be an association consisting of seven or higher number of members which is registered under the Companies Act, 1956. The articles of a public company do not contain provisions restricting the number of its members or excluding generally the offer or transfer of shares or debentures to the public. Any member of the public who is willing to pay the price may acquire shares in or debentures of a public company. Shares and Debentures of public companies are capable of being dealt on a stock exchange. Unlike a private company, there is no restriction with regards to the maximum number of members of a public company.

There are provisions in the Companies Act, 1956 for a Private company to become Public in certain cases. This would need to be informed to the Registrar who would substitute the word "Public Company" for the word "Private Company" in the register and shall also make necessary alterations in the Memorandum of Association (MOA) and Certificate of Incorporation within four weeks from the date of application made by  the company.

Private Company

A private company means a company which has a minimum paid up capital of one lakh rupees or such higher paid up capital and by its articles:
(a) restricts the right to transfer its shares.
(b) prohibits any invitation to the public to subscribe for any shares or debentures.
(c) prohibits any invitation or acceptance of deposits from persons other than its members, directors or their relatives.

There should be at least two persons to form a private company. A private company can therefore be registered with a minimum 2 members and cannot have more than 50 members. The words "Private Limited" must be added at the end of its name by a private limited company. It can be shortly added as "Pvt Ltd".
