Register Your OPC TodayWhat is One Person Company (OPC)?
A One Person Company (OPC) is a revolutionary business structure introduced under the Companies Act 2013, designed specifically for single entrepreneurs who want the benefits of a corporate entity without the complexities of multiple ownership. It combines the advantages of sole proprietorship's simplicity with the legal protection and credibility of a private limited company.
Key Characteristics:
- Single Ownership: Only one person can be the sole director and shareholder with complete control
- Limited Liability: Personal assets are protected from business liabilities and debts
- Separate Legal Entity: Company has independent legal existence distinct from its owner
- Perpetual Succession: Business continues even in case of owner's death through nominee arrangement
- Nominee Director: Mandatory appointment of a nominee to take control if needed
- Corporate Benefits: Access to funding, loans, and better business credibility
Key Benefits of OPC Registration
Limited Liability Protection
Personal assets remain completely protected from business debts and liabilities, unlike sole proprietorship where everything is at risk.
Separate Legal Entity
OPC has independent legal existence, allowing it to own property, enter contracts, and conduct business in its own name.
Tax Benefits
Lower corporate tax rate of 22% under new tax regime, no dividend distribution tax, and better depreciation benefits.
Enhanced Credibility
Better brand image and business credibility with clients, vendors, and financial institutions compared to proprietorship.
Easy Access to Funding
Better loan approval chances, ability to raise capital, issue debentures, and attract investors as a corporate entity.
Perpetual Succession
Business continues even after owner's death through nominee director, ensuring business continuity and succession planning.
Minimal Compliance
Lower compliance burden compared to private limited companies, with simplified annual filing requirements.
Complete Control
100% ownership and control over business decisions without need for shareholder meetings or board approvals.
