Choosing the right entity is the single most important structural decision a founder makes. The [Companies Act 2013](https://www.mca.gov.in/MinistryV2/actsbills.html) provides seven company forms - Private Limited (Section 2(68)), Public Limited (Section 2(71)), OPC (Section 3(1)(c)), Section 8 non-profit (Section 8), Nidhi (Section 406), Producer Company (Section 465 + Part IXA of the old Act), and Small Company (Section 2(85)). The [LLP Act 2008](https://www.mca.gov.in/MinistryV2/llpbills.html) provides the Limited Liability Partnership form. The Indian Partnership Act 1932 and the Companies (Incorporation) Rules 2014 govern Partnership Firms and Sole Proprietorships respectively. Each form carries distinct liability, tax (Income-tax Act 1961 Section 2(22)), compliance cost (Section 403 ₹100/day penalty), and funding-route consequences. I-Pro Solutions executes every Indian entity registration through a single SPICe+ (INC-32) integrated filing - covering name reservation (Part A), incorporation (Part B), PAN allotment, TAN allotment, EPF registration, ESIC registration, Profession Tax (in some States), and bank account opening - in 7-14 working days. Our CS+CA+Advocate team advises on the right form for your funding plan, ESOP intent, sector, and growth horizon before the first form is filed.

File SPICe+ (INC-32) on the MCA portal - Part A reserves the name (RUN service, 2 proposed names), Part B contains incorporation, PAN, TAN, EPF, ESIC, Profession Tax, bank account opening and subscriber DIN. With two subscribers, two directors (one resident in India), and registered office proof, the Certificate of Incorporation is typically issued in 7-14 working days.
Post the 2015 amendment to the Companies Act 2013, there is no minimum authorised or paid-up capital for a private limited company. A nominal authorised capital of ₹1 lakh is the practical floor. Government filing fee is zero for authorised capital up to ₹15 lakh (post the 26 January 2020 waiver), with scaled fees above.
A minimum of two directors under Section 149(1) of the Companies Act 2013, with a maximum of 15 (extendable by special resolution). At least one director must be a person who has stayed in India for ≥182 days in the financial year (Section 149(3) - resident director requirement). An OPC requires only one director.
For a VC-fundable startup, a Private Limited Company is the standard choice because it permits equity issuance, ESOPs under Section 2(37), and preferential allotment. For a professional services firm or family business with no external funding plan, an LLP offers lower compliance (no audit below ₹40 lakh contribution / ₹25 lakh turnover), no minimum alternate tax (MAT) under Section 115JB, and partnership-style internal flexibility.
Yes - a One Person Company (OPC) under Section 3(1)(c) of the Companies Act 2013 can be incorporated with one member who is also the sole director. The 2019 amendment removed the Indian-citizenship requirement and the turnover-₹2-crore conversion trigger; an OPC must convert to a private or public company only when paid-up capital exceeds ₹2 crore or average turnover exceeds ₹2 crore for three consecutive years.
