Understanding One Person Company (OPC) Registration:

This can be termed as an amendment to the sole proprietorship registration. In this setup, an individual promoter gets complete control over the company and its operations while the liability is limited to the contributions to the business. The individual acts as the only director and shareholder of the company. There is a provision to nominate a nominee director but he has no power until and unless the director fails to perform his duties. This limits the ability of the OPC to raise funding through equity or offering employee stock options. 

Advantages of One Person Company Registration:

It enjoys continuous existence:

In case of sole proprietorship, the death of the proprietor is the end of its existence. However, being a legal entity, OPC is transferred to the nominee director.

It offers limited liability:

The director does not have to bear the business debts as a personal liability. His liability is limited to the investment of the company which is not available in sole proprietorship company.

An OPC is more credible, it has to get its books audited annually by a registered auditor and lenders easily trusts books of LLP.

Conversion & Taxation:

OPC can be converted to Private limited Company with certain terms & conditions. Registration under OPC is considered as Private limited registration. Hence, taxes are applicable in a similar way as applicability on Private limited company.
