Answer / rupesh kr pandey
A holding company is a company or firm that owns other
companies' outstanding stock. It usually refers to a company
which does not produce goods or services itself; rather, its
purpose is to own shares of other companies. Holding
companies allow the reduction of risk for the owners and can
allow the ownership and control of a number of different
companies. In the US, 80% or more of stock, in voting and
value, must be owned before tax consolidation benefits such
as tax-free dividends can be claimed
