What is a One Person Company (OPC)?

A One Person Company (OPC) is a type of company that can be started and managed by a single person. It is incorporated under the Companies Act, 2013 and works like a private limited company, but with only one owner. Many entrepreneurs choose this structure during the company registration process because it provides the benefits of limited liability and a separate legal identity.

Even though there is only one person behind it, the company is treated as a separate legal identity. This means the company can:

• Own property in its own name,
• Open a bank account,
• Sign contracts, and
• Can file the cases independently

Process for OPC Incorporation in Hyderabad

Step 1: Obtain a Digital Signature Certificate (DSC)

The DSC is used to sign documents that need to be submitted online. It is issued by government-recognised certifying authorities.

Step 2: Obtain a Director Identification Number (DIN)

The MCA assigns each director of a firm a unique identification number known as a DIN.  Each director has a different and new number. The SPICe+ Form on the MCA portal is used to submit the DIN application.

Step 3: Reserve a Company Name

Once you obtain the DSC and complete your DSC registration online, you can proceed with the company name reservation process. The name must be new, unique, and not similar to any existing company. An application in the SPICe+ form for name reservation must be submitted after proposing two names in priority order on the MCA portal. Once approved by the MCA, the name will be reserved for 20 days from the date of approval.

Step 4: Draft the Memorandum of Association (MoA)

Once the name of your company is approved, the next step is to prepare the Memorandum of Association (MoA). The MoA is the constitution of your company. It defines the goal, objectives, scope of activities of the company, what your company is formed to do and how it plans to function.

Step 5: Draft the Articles of Association (AoA)

The Articles of Association (AoA) act as a rulebook for your company. It sets out how the company will be managed internally. It defines the power of the director over how meetings and decision-making will take place. It also covers important details such as share capital, voting rights, and administration.

 Step 6: Submit the incorporation documents with the Registrar of Companies (ROC)

After drafting the MoA and AoA, you will need to file them online with the Registrar of Companies (ROC) through the MCA portal.

• The MoA is filed in Form INC-33.
• The AoA is filed in Form INC-34.

You also need to attach the following documents, pay the government fees, and upload the nominee’s consent form.

• Identity and Address Proof of Director and Shareholder(s)
• Proof of the Registered Office Address
• Consent and declaration by the director and the shareholder – Form INC- 9

Step 7: Appoint a Nominee

As per the Companies Act, 2013, it is mandatory to appoint a nominee in an OPC. A nominee is a person who will take over the company if the sole owner passes away or becomes unable to run the business.

Before the appointment, the nominee has to provide written consent in Form INC-3, in which the nominee confirms their consent to act as a nominee. This consent is then submitted to the MCA, along with the incorporation documents.

Step 8: Obtain a Certificate of Incorporation

When RoC verifies all the compliance requirements of the company and all the documents, a Certificate of Incorporation will be issued by the ROC. The certificate officially states that the OPC is incorporated, officially marking the formation of your OPC. The certificate includes the Corporate Identification Number (CIN), which is the unique Identification number for each company. 

Step 9: Open a Bank Account

After applying for a PAN and TAN, a new bank account in the company's name must be opened to enable the company to conduct financial transactions.

Compliances for OPC Post-Incorporation

Incorporating an OPC is not enough; it has to file the following every year to legally operate in India:

• File the financial statements
• File the Annual Return
• File the DIR-3 KYC form
• File the Tax returns
• File the GST returns (if registered)
