    Meaning Of One Person Company

    According to Section 2(62) of Companies Act, a one-person company is a business entity which has only one individual as its member. Moreover, the company’s members are nothing but either the subscribers to the company’s MOA (memorandum of association) or its shareholders.

    Therefore, an OPC can be defined as a company which has a single shareholder as its member.

    One Person Company (OPC) registration is a new concept that surpasses the limitations of resources, time and mediums to get more partners for the execution of business plans and enables us to promote the incorporation of micro-businesses & accomplish our entrepreneurial dreams.

    OPC can also be considered as the combination of Company and Sole proprietorship. OPC can be registered as a one-person company under Section 2(62) of the Companies Act, 2013 and the rules thereto. The absence of complexities that comes with multiple partners, motivates many people to incorporate an OPC to start their business. Besides, Limited Liability also bolsters the incorporation of OPCs.

    • Rationale Behind One Person Company

      • An individual can easily transform the business idea into a corporate form.
      • Limited Liability
      • OPC can be solely carried out by the same person.
      • Limited resources are adequate in OPC.
      • No minimum paid-up share capital under the Companies Act, 2013.
      • Perpetual succession

    • Benefits of One Person Company Registration in Jaipur

      • Limited Liability
        Company’s member holds liability to the limit of his share in the company. In an OPC, one person has the complete share and entire authority over the business’s operations. Therefore, the liability of the person is limited to the investment made by him/her.
      • Independent Existence
        One Person Company has a separate legal entity and independent existence.
      • Less Tax Burden
        In OPC, you can receive remuneration as a director and rent as a lessor. Also, as a creditor, you can advance funds to your commercial entity and earn interest. Rent, Directors’ remuneration and interest are deductible expenses which reduce the profitability of the Company and thus reduces the taxable income of the business entity.
      • Quicker Actions
        OPC is entirely ruled and managed by one owner which results in fast decision making and quicker actions.
      • No requirement of minimum capital contribution
      • Compulsory Audit is required only when the Contribution exceeds 25 lakhs or the Annual Turnover exceeds 40 Lakhs.
