Are you starting your own business journey? A One-Person Company (OPC) is the perfect legal structure for solo entrepreneurs looking to establish a formal business presence with limited liability and full control. At Rietway, we simplify the process of OPC registration in India, making it quick, compliant, and hassle-free.
A One-Person Company (OPC) is a type of company that can be formed with just one director and one shareholder, introduced under the Companies Act, 2013. Unlike a sole proprietorship, an OPC is a separate legal entity, offering liability protection to the owner while maintaining complete control over the company.
Here are the key advantages of choosing an OPC:
✅ Limited Liability Protection – Personal assets remain safe in case of business losses or debts.
✅ Full Control – You are the sole decision-maker in the company.
✅ Separate Legal Entity – The business has its own identity, allowing contracts and property ownership.
✅ Easy to Raise Funds – OPCS can attract funding by converting to a Private Limited Company.
✅ Credibility – A registered company builds trust with clients, vendors, and investors.
