  • Process
One Person Company is a business entity run by a sole owner with the benefit of limited liability. One Person Company is a separate legal entity from its members, offering protection to its shareholders. Every One Person Company must nominate a member for the Directorial position in the MOA/AOA, in case of absence of the prime Director. A private limited company or famously known as LTD is a privately held company. This implies that the business limits owner liability to its shares and limits the number of shareholders to 50. It also restricts shareholders from trading shares publicly. Advantages of Private Limited Company 
  • The liability of shareholders is limited to their shares. Financial risks are a part of the business but to be able to minimize them and sustain the business progress is imperative. In an LTD, if due to any reason the company were to be shut the shareholders would not risk losing their personal assets.
  • Risk of takeovers is minimized when two shareholders trade shares as the selling and buying of shares are possible only when both parties have given their consent.
  • Private limited companies are incorporated; hence it continues to exist even if the owner dies.
  • The capital or options of raising investment in the business is not restricted to one person, which is the case in Sole Proprietorship.
  • Private limited companies pay corporate tax on their profits. Dividends that the shareholders receive are not taxed. Taxes are determined as per their personal income tax rate.
  • Private limited companies can attract high-caliber employees that offer great help in the growth of the company.
