Advantages Of One Person Company


    A-One Person Company (OPC) is best suited for people who wish to be sole entrepreneurs. While even a sole proprietorship offers the same benefit, unlike a sole proprietorship, an OPC offers limited liability and also a separate entity status, along with a better standing in the market (increased trust and respect).

  • Limited liability: According to the Companies Act 2013, in an OPC, the liability of the single shareholder is limited to the unpaid subscription money in his/her name. This means that his/her personal property is completely safe from creditors of the business.
  • Market Value: People bestow a lot of trust in a private limited company making it easier to trust an OPC. Even during B2B (business-to-business) dealings, larger corporations prefer a company structure to a sole proprietorship. Also, being socially accepted allows you to attract quality talent and create an efficient talent pool.
  • Continuous Existence: An OPC has a seperate legal identity, it would pass on the nominee director, therefore, it has continued existence.
  • Easier to Raise Funds: As compared to a general partnership or sole proprietorship, an OPC is preferred by banks for loans. This is because it has the structure of a company. The structure of a company is transparent and its perpetual succession ensures that the bank doesn’t suffer losses in any scenario.
  • Full Control Over the Company: As OPC is a single member company there is full control over the company which helps in fast decision making and execution.
  • Lesser Compliances: As compared to a private limited company, an OPC has lesser compliance requirements. An OPC needs to conduct at least one board meeting in each half of a calendar year (one between January-June and one between July-December). However, if the OPC has a single director, then he can pass a resolution without a meeting and enter the details in the minutes’ book.
