Where from u had got this term "Outstanding shares". Outstanding shares may be the shares issued out of the authorised capital. Suppose, a company's authorised capital is 1 crore shares of Rs.10/- each. The company has issued 60 lakhs shares of them, then outstanding shares will be 60 lakhs.

What does outstanding shares means, and how to find outstanding shares of any particular company.

it will be seen in the Balance sheet. in all sites, whatever share capital is shown is nothing but outstanding shares only.
