I don't know about India. But in some countries the Shareholders are those who own common stock (equity) in the firm. Stake holders include shareholders but also include others -- like bondholders, management, employers, customers and suppliers.
Some people use the two terms interchangeably -- but should not.

Shares are the units of capital in a public company..i.e. I may own 1000 shares in HLL. Stake is an informal term used to denote ownership...i.e. I have a stake in HLL or I have a 0.000001% ownership stake in HLL. The unit of measurement is shares.
