M/s stands for “Messrs”, plural of Mister(Mr), M/s will be used as a prefix in front of the firm names which are formed by the partnership. For example M/s Rajesh Enterprises, M/s Ram&Co transports, etc.

Whenever a company is formed by more than one person, then M/S will be added in front of that firm’s title, and there is no need to use M/s before Ltd and Pvt Ltd company names.

But some companies use this prefix even in front of the ltd and Pvt ltd companies without prior knowledge, there is no illegality in that but as per the English language it should not be added in front of the one person formed companies.
