Understanding One Person Company (OPC)

An OPC is a unique business structure that blends the benefits of a private limited company with the simplicity of a sole proprietorship. It allows a single individual to own and manage the company while enjoying limited liability protection and a separate legal identity.

This structure offers full control to the owner while keeping compliance manageable and startup-friendly.
