Every claim on this page can be traced back to a section or rule below.
Section 2(62) defines a One Person Company (OPC) as a company that has only one person as its member. This single-member structure is what legally distinguishes an OPC from a private limited company, which needs a minimum of two members, and from a proprietorship, which is not a separate legal entity. The sole member enjoys limited liability while the company holds a distinct corporate personality, perpetual succession, and the capacity to own property and contract in its own name.
View sourceSection 3(1)(c) permits a company to be formed for any lawful purpose by one person where the company to be formed is a One Person Company, which is classified as a private company. Under the proviso to Section 3(1), the memorandum of an OPC must state the name of the person (the nominee) who becomes the member on the subscriber's death or incapacity to contract, ensuring perpetual succession despite there being a single member.
View sourceRule 4 requires the sole member to nominate another natural person who is an Indian citizen and who will become the member of the OPC on the subscriber's death or incapacity. The nominee's prior written consent is obtained in Form INC-3 and filed with the Registrar at incorporation. The member may change the nominee at any time, and a nominee may withdraw consent, in which case the member must nominate a replacement within 15 days and the company must intimate the Registrar in Form INC-4.
View sourceAn OPC must file its financial statements in Form AOC-4 under Section 137 within 180 days from the close of the financial year, and its annual return in the abridged Form MGT-7A under Section 92, which was introduced for OPCs and small companies from FY 2020-21. The annual return of an OPC does not require signing by a company secretary and may be signed by the director. Delayed filing attracts an additional fee of one hundred rupees per day per form with no upper cap.
View sourceSection 173(5) relaxes board-meeting norms for an OPC, along with small and dormant companies: it must hold at least one board meeting in each half of a calendar year, with a gap of not less than ninety days between the two meetings. Where an OPC has only one director, Section 173(5) does not apply and board decisions are simply recorded in the minutes book and signed and dated by the sole director, keeping governance light for single-person businesses.
View sourceRule 3 provides that only a natural person who is an Indian citizen may incorporate an OPC and act as its nominee. Following the Companies (Incorporation) Second Amendment Rules 2021, the earlier strict residency requirement was relaxed, the residency period was reduced to 120 days, and Non-Resident Indians were expressly permitted to form OPCs. A person may incorporate only one OPC and be the nominee of only one OPC, and a minor cannot be a member or nominee. Rule 3(6) also bars an OPC from carrying on non-banking financial investment activity.
