One Person Company (OPC) Registration

Start Your One-Person Company

A One Person Company (OPC) is a unique business structure introduced under the Companies Act, 2013, allowing solo entrepreneurs to enjoy the benefits of a private limited company while maintaining full control.

OPC registration is an ideal choice for startups, freelancers, professionals, and small business owners who want limited liability protection, a separate legal identity, and better growth prospects.

At Noble India Filings, we simplify the OPC registration process, ensuring a quick, hassle-free, and legally compliant setup for your business.

Key Benefits of Registering an OPC

Why OPC is the best choice for solo entrepreneurs.

Limited Liability Protection

The personal assets of the business owner remain protected, as liability is limited to the investment in the company.

Separate Legal Entity

An OPC is distinct from its owner, allowing it to own property, enter contracts, and sue or be sued in its own name.

Full Control of Business

Unlike partnerships or private limited companies, an OPC allows a single entrepreneur to have complete decision-making power.

Easy Funding & Credibility

Being a registered company, an OPC attracts more investors, lenders, and clients compared to proprietorships.

No Minimum Capital

OPCs can be formed with any amount of capital, making it a cost-effective choice for small businesses.

Better Business Recognition

An OPC is legally recognized, boosting brand credibility in client dealings, tender applications, and business expansions.

Note: Once an OPC grows beyond a ₹2 crore turnover or has more than one director, it can be easily converted into a Private Limited Company.

Who Should Consider an OPC?

OPC registration is ideal for individuals who want to run a business independently while enjoying the benefits of limited liability.
