Overview
What is One Person Company Registration?
One Person Company (OPC) is a unique business structure introduced by the Companies Act 2013 that allows a single individual to incorporate a company — combining the benefits of a sole proprietorship with the advantages of a private limited company.
An OPC enjoys limited liability protection, separate legal entity status, and perpetual succession — all with just one person. This makes it ideal for solo entrepreneurs, freelancers, and professionals who want corporate credibility.
PrimeWealth Advisory provides end-to-end OPC registration assistance, from documentation to obtaining your Certificate of Incorporation.
