A new concept has been introduced in the Company’s Act, 2013 in relation to One Person Company (OPC) for providing support to small entrepreneurs. This encourages a lot of individuals to start their business. OPC can be formed with only 1 owner, who acts as both the Director as well as Shareholder of the Company with limited liability. In OPC, a single promoter gains full authority over the Company and thereby restricting his/her liability upto their contributions made in the Enterprise.

 

BENEFITS OF INCORPORATION OF ONE PERSON COMPANY (OPC):

  • The owner and business are considered separate. The personal assets of the director are not used to pay the debts of the Company.
  • OPC is part of a Private Company, therefore, the liability of the single owner is limited to the extent of his contribution.
  • A designated Nominee may be assigned to run the Company, in the event of death of the sole Member.
  • OPC is granted a number of exemptions from the Company Law Regulations which helps the officials of OPC in smooth running of operations of OPC.
  • As the Company is registered with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs it has more credibility with the stakeholders.
