Conversion of One Person Company (OPC) into Private Limited Company

No one person company can convert voluntarily into any kind of company unless two years have expired from the date of incorporation of One Person Company, except

a) threshold limit is increased beyond fifty lakh rupees (paid up share capital) or

b) its average annual turnover during the relevant period exceeds two crore rupees.

A Private Company has privilege over One Person Company as it can increase its number of members up to 200 for raising further funds for expansion.

Advantages of Private Limited Company

  • It is flexible and has limited liability.
  • Greater capital contribution and greater stability as compared to OPC.
  • Greater possibility to grow big and expand with greater number of members as compared to OPC.
  • No maximum limit of share capital and turnover needs to be maintained in private company as required in OPC.
  • Better management, as at least two directors needed to be appointed which distributes the work load between directors and brings more stability and accuracy in decision making.
  • If any 3rd party sue the unregistered firm then the unregistered firm can’t claim set-off of the amount which it owed by 3rd party to it.
