एक व्यक्ति कंपनी (OPC) पंजीकरण
अकेले उद्यमियों के लिए सीमित देयता सुरक्षा के साथ कंपनी पंजीकरण।
प्रक्रिया
हम वास्तव में क्या करते हैं
- 1
We check whether an OPC is the right answer
If a co-founder is coming, a private limited company from the start avoids a conversion. If nothing needs limited liability, a proprietorship costs a fraction as much to run. An OPC sits between those and suits a narrower set of cases than it is usually recommended for.
- 2
We get the nominee in place properly
The nominee consents in Form INC-3 and is named in the memorandum. Only a natural person resident in India may be a nominee, and one person may be nominee for only one OPC. This is not a formality — without it the company cannot be incorporated.
- 3
We reserve the name and file SPICe+
The name must end with 'OPC Private Limited'. Incorporation covers PAN, TAN, EPFO, ESIC and the bank account in one integrated filing.
- 4
We complete the post-incorporation filings
The first auditor within thirty days, and INC-20A within 180 days before business may lawfully commence. The 180-day declaration is the one solo founders miss most, and it carries ₹50,000 on the company plus ₹1,000 a day on the officer.
- 5
We set up the annual cycle
AOC-4 and MGT-7A annually, statutory audit regardless of turnover, and director KYC each September. An OPC is exempt from holding an AGM, which is the one real simplification it gets.
यह किसके लिए है
- Solo founders who want liability limited to what they put in
- Consultants and professionals whose clients require an incorporated supplier
- Proprietors whose business has grown enough that personal liability is a real exposure
- Founders who want corporate standing now and a second shareholder later
कितना समय लगता है
Ten to fifteen working days from complete documents to the certificate of incorporation, with name approval the variable step.
यदि आप कुछ न करें
An OPC that stops filing behaves like any other dormant company: the additional fee runs at ₹100 a day per form with no ceiling, and after three years the sole director is disqualified across every company they hold office in. Because there is only one director, that disqualification stops the company filing anything at all — including the filings needed to strike it off.

जो अक्सर ग़लत होता है
- Incorporating an OPC while intending to bring in a co-founder, which requires conversion first
- Naming a nominee without the written consent in Form INC-3
- Missing INC-20A within 180 days, which blocks lawful commencement of business
- Treating it like a proprietorship and skipping the statutory audit, which applies at any turnover
- Letting director KYC lapse, which deactivates the only DIN the company has
जुर्माना
- ₹50,000 on the company and ₹1,000 per day on each officer for failure to file INC-20A
- ₹100 per day per form additional fee for late annual filings, uncapped
- DIN deactivated and ₹5,000 to reactivate where KYC is missed
- Director disqualification for five years after three consecutive years of non-filing
ये वैधानिक राशियाँ हैं, हमारा शुल्क नहीं। हमारा शुल्क आपकी स्थिति पर निर्भर करता है और कोटेशन में दिया जाता है।
इसे इनसे न मिलाएँ
मिलती-जुलती सेवाएँ जो अक्सर एक समझ ली जाती हैं।
Sole proprietorship
A proprietorship is not a separate legal person and carries unlimited liability. An OPC is a company with limited liability, statutory audit and annual MCA filings.
Private limited company
A private limited company needs at least two shareholders and two directors. An OPC has one of each, and cannot take a second shareholder without converting.
