Liability of a Pvt limited Company is limited - a mith. The fact is that liability of a share holder of a limited company is limited to the extent of value of the shares. In other words, the other assets of the shareholder can not attached for default of the company. So the liability of a limited company is limited to the assets of the company, not limited to the face value of the shares.
On the other hand the partner of a partnership company has unlimited liability. i.e., the assets of the partner can be attached in case of default. Similarly, when a pvt limited company is a partner the liability of the company is unlimited and to the extent of assets of the company not to the assets of individual shareholders.
So a limited company is a legal entity and can become a partner or proprietor of a firm.
