One Person Company (OPC) Registration in India

---

A One Person Company (OPC) is a modern business structure introduced under the Companies Act, 2013, designed for solo entrepreneurs. It allows a single individual to enjoy the benefits of a company—like limited liability, separate legal entity, and higher credibility—while maintaining complete control of the business.

At Healthy Tax, we provide end-to-end OPC registration services in India, including name approval, incorporation, PAN, TAN, and GST registration, ensuring a fast, affordable, and hassle-free process.
