A company gets a corporate personality after incorporation but even before that many steps are taken. There are persons involve in preparing documents, aranging professionals, making contracts, and doing other things so as to initiate a company. Such persons are the promoters and the contracts made by them for the proposed company are Pre-incorporation or preliminary contracts. Judiciary through its precedents has developed rules related to such transactions.
