One Person Company

(OPC)

Definition

A Private Limited Company with a single shareholder and director. Designed for solo entrepreneurs. Files MGT-7A (simplified return) instead of MGT-7. Mandatorily converts to Pvt Ltd once paid-up capital exceeds ₹50 lakhs or turnover crosses ₹2 crore.

Why founders care

Good for freelancers or solo founders who want limited liability without a co-founder. But you'll need to convert to Pvt Ltd if you plan to raise funding or hire significantly.
