What is OPC?
One Person Company (OPC) is a company structure that allows a single promoter to enjoy the benefits of a limited liability company (LLC). In an OPC, there is only one shareholder and director, who can be the same person. This type of company was introduced in India through the Companies Act, 2013.
The key advantage of an OPC is that it provides limited liability protection to the shareholder, which means that the personal assets of the shareholder are not at risk in case the company runs into financial difficulties or faces legal action. Additionally, an OPC has a separate legal identity, which means that it can own assets, enter into contracts, and sue or be sued in its own name.
Another benefit of an OPC is that it is easier to manage compared to other types of companies, as there is only one director who has complete control over the company’s operations. This makes it ideal for entrepreneurs who want to start a business on their own but also want the benefits of limited liability protection.
