WHAT IS OPC REGISTRATION?

The idea of One Person Company (OPC) in India was introduced to give a boost to entrepreneurs who have great potential to start their own venture by allowing them to create a single person company. If an OPC exceeds a turnover of over Rs. 2 crore or has a paid-up capital above Rs. 50 lakhs, it must be turned into a private or public limited company within six months.

ADVANTAGE

Limited Liability: The directors’ personal property is always safe in a private limited company, no matter the debts of the business.

Continuous Existence: An OPC has a separate legal identity, it would pass on to the nominee director upon his death and therefore, continue to exist.

Greater Credibility: As an OPC needs to have its books audited annually, it has greater credibility among vendors and lending institutions.
