A One Person Company (OPC) is a company incorporated under Section 2(62) of the Companies Act, 2013 with a single member. Introduced to enable solo entrepreneurs to operate with the benefits of a company structure — separate legal identity, limited liability, and corporate credibility — without requiring a second shareholder. An OPC is the ideal structure for individual professionals and entrepreneurs who want corporate status without the complexity of a multi-member company.

An OPC must have a nominee — an Indian resident citizen — who will take over as member in case of the original member's death or incapacity. The nominee's consent is filed in Form INC-3 at the time of incorporation. Unlike a Private Limited Company, an OPC need not hold board meetings if it has only one director — decisions are passed by the sole member and entered in minutes. After the Companies (Amendment) Act, 2020, mandatory conversion thresholds based on turnover and capital have been removed, giving OPCs the freedom to continue indefinitely.

Annual compliance for an OPC is simpler than for a regular company — only AOC-4 (financial statements) and MGT-7A (OPC-specific annual return) are filed with the MCA. A statutory audit is required. We handle the complete OPC incorporation and manage all annual MCA filings so you can focus on running your business.

Frequently Asked Questions

Only a natural person who is an Indian citizen and resident in India (present in India for at least 182 days in the previous calendar year) can incorporate an OPC. A person cannot be a member or nominee in more than one OPC at a time. Minors and non-residents cannot be members of an OPC.
Every OPC must nominate a person (who must be an Indian citizen and resident) to become the member of the OPC in the event of the death or incapacity of the sole member. The nominee's written consent must be filed in Form INC-3 at the time of incorporation. The nominee can be changed at any time by the member by filing Form INC-4.
After the Companies (Amendment) Act, 2020, the mandatory conversion threshold for OPCs has been removed. Previously, an OPC was required to convert to a Private Limited Company if paid-up capital exceeded ₹50 lakh or annual turnover exceeded ₹2 crore. Now, OPCs can continue regardless of their turnover or paid-up capital, though voluntary conversion to a Pvt Ltd remains possible.
An OPC with only one director need not hold board meetings — a resolution passed by the sole member and entered in the minutes book is deemed to be a board meeting. However, if the OPC has more than one director, it must hold at least one board meeting in each half of the calendar year with a minimum gap of 90 days between meetings.
An OPC must conduct a statutory audit, file AOC-4 (financial statements) and MGT-7A (annual return specific to OPCs) with the MCA, and file income tax returns. The OPC must also maintain statutory registers and comply with DIR-3 KYC for the director. Annual compliance for an OPC is significantly lower than for a regular Private Limited Company.
Yes. An OPC can be voluntarily converted to a Private Limited Company at any time after 2 years from the date of incorporation, by passing a resolution and filing Form INC-6 with the MCA. After conversion, the company must have at least 2 directors and 2 shareholders, and the higher compliance requirements of a Private Limited Company will apply.
