  1. A Complete Guide to One Person Company Registration by EGSTIN Starting a business on your own can be an exciting and rewarding journey. For many aspiring entrepreneurs in India, the One Person Company (OPC) structure provides a perfect legal framework that balances the benefits of sole proprietorship and private limited company. In this blog, EGSTIN—your trusted partner for business compliance and registration services—presents a comprehensive guide to One Person Company Registration, its benefits, process, and how it compares to other structures like Public Limited Company Registration. What is a One Person Company (OPC)? Introduced under the Companies Act, 2013, an OPC allows a single individual to incorporate a company with limited liability. This structure is ideal for solo founders who want complete control of the business while enjoying the legal status of a company. Unlike sole proprietorships, OPCs offer better credibility, access to funding, and limited personal liability. Benefits of Registering an OPC

  2. 1. Limited Liability Protection: Your personal assets remain safe in case of business losses or legal issues. 2. Separate Legal Entity: An OPC is treated as a separate legal entity, ensuring clear distinction between personal and business assets. 3. Easier Funding Options: Banks and investors prefer to work with registered companies. 4. Simplified Compliance: OPCs enjoy certain exemptions in regulatory filings compared to other companies. 5. Tax Efficiency: When paired with proper Income Tax Return Filing, OPCs can be managed with better financial planning. Who Can Register an OPC? ● Only a natural person who is an Indian citizen and resident in India can incorporate an OPC. ● That person cannot incorporate more than one OPC at a time. ● A nominee must be appointed during incorporation to take over in case of the founder’s death or incapacity. Documents Required for OPC Registration ● PAN Card and Aadhaar Card of the director ● Passport-sized photograph ● Proof of registered office (Rent agreement/Utility bill/NOC from owner) ● DSC (Digital Signature Certificate) ● DIN (Director Identification Number) ● Consent and declaration forms (as prescribed by MCA) Step-by-Step OPC Registration Process by EGSTIN 1. Digital Signature Certificate (DSC): Obtain DSC for the sole director. 2. Director Identification Number (DIN): Apply for DIN through SPICe+ form.

  3. 3. Name Approval: Choose a unique name and apply through the RUN service on MCA. 4. Incorporation Filing: Submit the SPICe+ form with required documents to the Ministry of Corporate Affairs. 5. Issue of Certificate: Once approved, you'll receive the Certificate of Incorporation and your company is legally registered. At EGSTIN, we ensure this process is quick, transparent, and affordable—guiding you at every step. OPC vs Public Limited Company Registration While OPCs are ideal for solo entrepreneurs, Public Limited Company Registration is better suited for large-scale businesses requiring public investment and multiple directors. If you plan to expand and raise capital through the public, a public limited company offers that flexibility—but with increased compliance and cost. For individuals just starting out, Company Registration in India as an OPC provides the perfect mix of control and legal security. Income Tax Return Filing for OPCs Even though an OPC enjoys many exemptions, Income Tax Return Filing is mandatory every financial year. OPCs are taxed at 25% (plus applicable surcharge and cess) if turnover is under ₹400 crore. EGSTIN provides expert tax filing services to ensure your OPC remains compliant with Indian tax laws—maximizing benefits and minimizing liabilities. Final Words One Person Company Registration is an excellent option for entrepreneurs wanting to go solo with a registered business structure. With EGSTIN, you get reliable, end-to-end support for Company Registration in India, Income Tax Return Filing, and even transitioning into larger entities like Public Limited Companies as your business grows.
