Hey Lalit..
There are lot of differences. The major factor is number of shareholders and shareholding pattern. In Pvt. Ltd. company the sahre holders comprise of close group of friends and relatives. A Pvt. Ltd. company can not make an offer for public to subscribe it's shares. Where as a Ltd. company can given an advertisement and invite general public to subscribe for it's shares. Basically a Pvt. Ltd. company is a corporate version of partnership firm where as a Public Ltd. company is a full fledged corporate body. For a Pvt. Ltd. company minimum 2 shareholders are required whereas for Public Ltd. company minimum 50 sharehoders are required. A share holder of a Public Ltd. company can transfere his shares freely at the stock exchange where the sahres are listed whereas in a Pvt. Ltd. Company a shareholder can not transfer his shares without the consent of other shareholders. Also shares of the Pvt. Ltd. company can not be listed on stock exchanges and hence can not be traded there like shares of a Public Ltd. company. These are some of the major points of diference. For more details you need to refer The Indian Companies Act 1956
Hope this information is enough for you.

Dear Swati,
Its indeed a good answer to the question. I would like to add one more point to the same.
A Private Ltd company can be migrated to a Public Ltd company. Infact, there are some foreign companies who comes to india as private ltd company first and after their operations based on certain criteria, they migrate to public ltd company. Here both the employer and the employees enjoy the benefits. For example: Metlife insurance co pvt ltd is now metlife insurance co ltd. this infact, adds the value of the company and its employees.
Moreover, migration from public ltd company to private ltd company is possible. Where the board of directors take the necessary action/steps with legal aids. Holland/Netherland based courier & cargo company, M/s. TNT India Ltd is now operating as TNT India pvt ltd. Here a public ltd company can migrate to private ltd company and is mostly for foreign companies or organisations.
In US we can find a good chunk of companies under public ltd rather than private ltd brand. Where as in Singapore, only private companies and not public organisations.
