How do you define majority shareholding. Is it only through % shareholding or is there any other factors. I believe there was changes to the company act recently

The question is too general - for what purpose are you defining it ? Accounting, voting etc ?

A majority shareholder (or group of shareholders) can cast the majority of votes at a general meeting of a company, and therefore controls all important aspects of running the company such as the appointment of directors.

Not unusual at all.

In small companies, CEO, Chairman of the Board, majority stockholder & founder are often the same person. How much power you actually have depends upon a number of things, not just _title_s.

For non-profits and publicly owned companies (as well as some medium sized private companies) the rules can require different structures. Although if my memory serves me correctly, Bill Gates was all of the above at Microsoft for a long time.
