What is a Producer Company?

A Producer Company is formed by farmers, agriculturalists, or producers who wish to collectively engage in the production, harvesting, procurement, grading, pooling, marketing, or selling of primary produce.

It is governed under Section 465 of the Companies Act, 2013, and registered with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA). The main purpose is to enhance economic benefits for members through cooperative efforts under a corporate framework.

 

Key Features of a Producer Company:

 

• Minimum of 10 natural persons as members (or 2 for small producer groups)
• Can issue shares to members
• Profits distributed among members
• Limited liability for members
• Focus on agriculture and allied activities
