Private company:
A private company is one which has minimum paid up capital of one lac rupees and which by its articles put:
a)Restrictions on membership: minimum 2 and maximum 50 members.
b)Restrictions on transferability of shares: the members do not have a right to transfer their shares freely. There are restrictions on their rights.
Prohibition of issue of prospectus: the company must prohibit their invitation to public to subscribe for its shares and debentures
Public company:
A public company is one , which is not a private company. Thus, if the articles of a company do not provide the aforesaid three restrictions, it shall be a public company. A public company requires minimum seven members and there is no limit on maximum members. The shares and debentures of public company may be quoted on a stock exchange and are freely transferable.

Hi Jaanu
Very simply speaking as per Company Law, 1956 :
A Private Limited Company is one whose equity is held closely(Privately) among stake holders being not less thsn 2 and not more than 50.
The Shares of such a com[pany are not traded publicly.
The Provisions also specify about the constitution and appointment of the Board of Directors.
A Public Limited Company is one whose equity is held publicly.
Thus a Public Limited Company can be promoted by a minimum number of promoters
eligible for the purpose(not less than 7).
The shares of such a company are registered in a stock exchange and can be traded .
Obviously, the issue is governed by the jurisdiction of regulatory authorities functioning under the RBI guidelines.
Hope for the timebeing so much is good enough.
