OPC Company Registration
As per the Companies Act, 2013 an One Person Company (OPC) is an unique entity where an individual can form a company. It combines the concept of a company with limited liability and succession, allowing a person to own and operate a company in their name.
Before the enactment of the Companies Act of 2013, the formation of a company in India necessitated at least two individuals. However, with the advent of this legislation, there’s a notable shift towards promoting(OPCs).
Simple Succession : Despite the fact that the company’s everyday operations are managed by a single person, OPC offers opportunities .
Limitation of Liability : A one-person company member has limited liability. Because OPC is a registered corporation, it is treated as a separate legal entity, providing its members with greater protection.
Ownership of Real Estate : Because the OPC is considered a separate legal organisation, the individual has the ability to possess company property.
