Benefits of OPC Registration
1.Limited Liability
The directors’ personal property is always safe in a private limited company, no matter the debts of the business.
2.Continuous Existence
Sole Proprietorships come to an end with the death of the proprietor. As an OPC has a separate legal identity, it would pass on to the nominee director and, therefore, continue to exist.
3.Greater Credibility
As an OPC needs to have its books audited annually, it has greater credibility among vendors and lending institutions.
