Benefits of One Person Company in India

Benefits of One Person Company in India




One Person Company (OPC) is a new concept introduced by the Companies Act 2013. It is a new corporate structure that does not require two shareholders to form a company. The idea of OPC was inspired by the success of One Person Companies in Singapore and USA.

The Oneperson company is an ideal structure for small entrepreneurs who are starting their business. It helps them to get the benefits of a private limited company without having to comply with the compliance related burden.

1. Easily Available Credit Facility: Banks and other financial institutions prefer lending to a One Person Company rather than proprietary firms which means that they can lend you more money.

2. Simple to Get Loan from Banks: It is easier for a One Person Company to get loans as they do not require a separate statutory audit report.

3. Annual Return Filing: It is not mandatory to file an Annual return with the Registrar of Company, however it can be filed by the directors.

4. Deductions for One Person Company: Like proprietorship, remuneration paid to the director of the OPC is highly applicable as deductions in income tax.

5. Perpetual Succession: The One Person Company will have the feature of perpetual succession, which means that its existence will not be affected by the death of the shareholder or the transfer of shares to other members.

6. Sense of Belonging: The One Person Company creates a sense of belonging which motivates the owner to grow the business further.

7. Easy Funding: The One Person Company is a good option for Small Scale Industries to start their businesses as it can enjoy many advantages like lower interest rates, easy funding from the banks and various benefits under foreign trade policy.

8. Sole Decision Maker: The One Person Company has only the sole decision maker and he is responsible for all the affairs of the business. This is beneficial for the owners as they can make quick decisions without following any long processes and methodologies that are adopted in other companies.

9. Limited Liability: The One Person Company has a limit on the liability of its members as well as the shareholders. This limits their risk and makes it more difficult for them to lose their Personal assets due to debts that the company incurred.

10. Easy to Incorporate: The One Person Company can be incorporated within 120 days of its inception, as opposed to the 182 days that are required for Proprietorship.

11. No Restrictions on Increasing the Paid-up Capital: The One Person Company can increase its paid-up capital at any time, as long as it continues to operate in the same manner.

12. No Restrictions on Changing the Name of the Company: The One Person Company can change its name at any time and this is another major advantage of the One Person Company.

The One Person Company has a number of other benefits as well. For example, it can enjoy a number of other incentives and benefits as a Micro, Small, or Medium business under the Enterprises Development Act 2006.
