One Person Company (OPC) was introduced by the Companies Act 2013 to give solo entrepreneurs the benefits of corporate structure — separate legal identity, limited liability, perpetual succession — without forcing them to find a co-founder. An OPC has exactly one shareholder and one nominee, simpler compliance than a Pvt Ltd, and can be converted into a regular Pvt Ltd once turnover crosses ₹2 crore or paid-up capital exceeds ₹50 lakh.
Everything required for One Person Company (OPC) Registration. Government statutory fees (MCA stamp duty, trademark filing fee, etc.) are charged at actual cost and shown separately before payment.

One person can own and run the entire company as sole shareholder while still enjoying a separate corporate legal identity.
The sole member's liability is limited to subscribed capital, protecting personal savings and property from business losses or creditor claims.
A nominated successor named at incorporation ensures the company continues seamlessly if the sole member dies or becomes incapacitated.
OPCs are exempt from holding AGMs and face relaxed board-meeting and reporting rules compared to a private limited company.
A corporate structure gives a solo entrepreneur greater credibility with banks, vendors and clients than an unregistered proprietorship.

No. A sole proprietorship has no separate legal identity — your personal assets are exposed. An OPC is a registered company with limited liability and a separate PAN. Strongly recommended if you bill more than ₹15 lakh a year.
No. As of 2026, only Indian residents (182+ days in the preceding year) can incorporate an OPC. NRIs should consider Pvt Ltd instead.
You must convert to Pvt Ltd within 6 months. FilingLab handles the conversion (INC-5 + INC-6 + supporting filings) for ₹4,999 + govt fees.
