A public Limited Company can never be a 100% subsidiary of a private limited company.

In terms of Sec.3(iv) a public Ltd company cannot be subsidiary of a Pvt Ltd Company. On the other hand a pvt Ltd company which is subsidiary of a Public Company will be regarded as Public Company. There is no limit on the number of persons who can be shreholders in a Public Company. A public company should have a minimum of 7 Directors on its Board.
