WHAT IS OPC REGISTRATION?

One Person Company or OPC registration requires a minimum of one Director which may extend to a maximum of 15 directors, and with only one subscriber. Both the Director and Subscriber may or may not be the same person, with no minimum paid-up capital limit. OPC company is incorporated as per the provisions Section 2(62) of the Companies Act 2013. One person company registration makes it easy for an individual to start a business with legal company registration.

One Person Company has a separate legal entity distinct from its members and Directors. OPC is more suited to freelancers or individuals who desire to have complete control of their business without the participation of any second person. OPC registration protects small entrepreneurs from the disadvantages of sole proprietorship and secures them with the status of a company.
