Concept of Perpetual Succession. Are there exceptions? If so, cite them.
PLEASE ANSWER ASAP
Perpetual Sucession : company does not die or cease to exist
unless it is specifically wound up or the task for which it was
formed has been completed. Membership of a company may keep on
changing from time to time but that does not affect life of the
company. Death or insolvency of member does not affect the
existence of the company.
In company law, perpetual
succession is the continuation of a corporation's
or other organization's existence despite the death, bankruptcy,
insanity, change in membership or an exit from the business of any
owner or member, or any transfer of stock etc
A company does not die or cease to exist unless it is specifically
wound up or the task for which it was formed has been
completed.
Yes there is an Exception for perpetual
succession
In case of a sole proprietorship there is only one person and the
business comes to and end if the owner dies because he is the only
owner. Hence, sole proprietorship does not have perpetual
succession
