[Bangiszz]

At the point when you purchase shares, you're purchasing a portion of the organization's resources and its benefits. Indeed (and in law), you're a section proprietor of the organization.infact you have a great portion of the company but don't forget the more shares you have with the company the more chance you have to be a shareholder.

Whenever a company is doing IPO (Initial Public Offer), they are simply calling outsiders to come with their fund in order to have more fund for business. On this singular act, you are a shareholder and entitled to dividend (profit or loss) at the end of the fiscal year.

You are absolutely correct but to modify your comment, as soon as you buy shares from a company even in the stock market you are considered a shareholder. You could also be awarded via a private placement, that also entitles you to be a shareholder.

Concerning your question on whether you own a portion of a company once you own shares in the company, my answer is yes, of course. Once you buy shares in any company you become a shareholder which means anytime payment is going on you won't be left out as long as you are still a shareholder

A share is a unit of ownership delivered by a capital company. In most cases, it is a commercial company with a limited liability.

Buying stocks in a particular company means that you are part of the company. This is what they mean by being a shareholder. You have a stake in the company and that's what is very nice in the way things are done in the stock market. There is a certain amount of shares that you will buy and you will be known as a major shareholder in the company too.

Generally, shares are freely negotiable and transferable. As a shareholder, you can decide at any time to sell all or some of your shares to other investors. You can sell them – or buy them – at a stock.

Yes, but this does not necessarily mean that you are automatically entitled to control the management or control the company yourself if you are a really small shareholder. It might be possible that a large group of small shareholders might be able to influence the decisions of the company. However, usually people who hold the majority of the shares are the ones who usually make decisions. Mostly directors of a company are the ones who manage the company. It actually depends on the rules and regulations set in the article of any particular company.

Buying shares from a company isn't just investment. It means that you are now part of the owners of the company and you can share in their benefits. I haven't really bought shares from any company but I know this is how it works everywhere.

Share can be defined as the portion of a company's holder owned by a shareholder. So if a person buys a share from a company, automatically you become part of the shareholders and you have a say in the company as well.

Having a share in a company automatically makes you a share holder and some are classified as major share holders who are part of decision making depending on how big their shares is in the company.
Profit and loss are shared in ratio of the shares owned in form of dividend
