Comparison among Sole Proprietorship Firm /OPC / Partnership
Proprietorship
There is no specific law of parliament or state that regulates the proprietorship business that is why it is so simple to start and operate. It also means that there is no way the details of the composition of the proprietorship business can be known.
OPC Company
One Person Company is owned by a single owner, akin to proprietorship. However, the OPC is registered in and regulated by the Companies Act, 2013. The details of the companies are verifiable at the MCA Portal. | Learn more on OPC 
Partnership Firm
The partnership firms are a traditional form of business and can start by way of an agreement between the parties. The Partnership Act of 1932 regulates the affairs if a partnership firm. The details of the partnership firm are not verifiable easily. | Learn more on Partnership Firm
Proprietorship
You can start the proprietorship firm with any amount of capital. It means there is no minimum or maximum capital prescribed as such for a proprietorship firm.
OPC Company
For a company including the OPC, before 2015 amendment of the companies act, there was a requirement of minimum paid-up capital of Rs 1 Lakh. However, post amendment of the law there is no prescribed minimum capital as such. It means you may incorporate an OPC with any capital as you desire. Learn more on OPC
Partnership Firm
Just like the proprietorship or partnership, there is no minimum paid-up capital that has been prescribed in the partnership act
Proprietorship
A single Individual can start a Sole Proprietorship Firm, where he alone will invest all the capital and shall be entitled to all the profits of the firm.
OPC Company
The OPC can be owned by only one Individual, also known as the sole shareholder. However, the sole owner of the OPC has to nominate another person to become his or her nominee. The OPC can have up to 15 directors. Click here to understand the difference between a shareholder and a director . To learn more about OPC Registration
Partnership Firm
In a partnership firm, a minimum of two partners is prescribed with a cap of a maximum of 20 partners.
Proprietorship
The proprietorship business lacks the benefit of perpetual succession. With the demise of the proprietor, the firm also ends its life. The proprietor and the proprietorship are the one and same.
OPC Company
The OPC is recognised as a separate legal entity in the eyes of the law, and the business is transferred to the nominee after the demise of the proprietor.
Partnership Firm
Just like proprietorship, the partnership business is not regarded as a separate business. In fact, with the death or removal of a partner, a new firm comes in existence in place of the old one.
Proprietorship
The proprietor is personally liable for all the liabilities and debts of the business. To pay off these liabilities, the personal properties of the proprietor can also be attached.
OPC Company
In an OPC the single shareholder is not liable for all the liabilities or debts of the company, and instead, he/she is responsible for paying only the sum which may be outstanding from her subscribed share capital.
Partnership Firm
The liabilities of the partnership firm is the joint or severe liability of each and every partner of the firm. Akin to the proprietorship, the personal assets of the partners can be sold off to pay the debts of the firm.
Advantages and Disadvantages of Sole Proprietorship Business Type
Advantages
1.
Easy to Start
You can start the proprietorship immediately at your will, take care that the business name does not infringes someone else's trademark. You may request a free trademark search from us. We strongly advise you to protect your business name, logo and domain name under Trademark Law. Click here to order for Trademark Filing . As per your business needs, you can go for MSME, GST or IEC Registration.
2.
Ease of compliance
The most significant advantage of a proprietorship business is that you don't have to file any additional annual return like a company. However, please note that the taxes are applicable in the same manner as it applies to any other business format; hence you will have to pay Income Tax and GST and file required returns.
3.
Easy to Close the Proprietorship Business
To close the proprietorship, there is nothing which you have to do specifically. Pay all statutory dues like Income tax, GST etc. and surrender all the registrations taken in the name of the firm. The closing proprietorship is easier in comparison to other forms of business.
Disadvantages
1.
Unlimited Liability of Business
A proprietor is personally liable for all the future liabilities of the proprietorship firm, which can occur due to constant losses in the business. To pay off debt or obligation of the business, the proprietor has to sell his personal assets, like the house, jewellery etc. or face insolvency proceedings in his name. Frankly, this is a very serious demerit, and to overcome this, you may incorporate a One Person Company.
2.
Transferability
Because all the tax registrations like GST, Income Tax and Import Export Code are linked with the PAN Number of the proprietor, hence in case you wish to transfer the business to someone else then it cant be transferred as a going concern. In other words, the business as such is not transferable.
3.
Lifespan of Proprietorship
The existence of a proprietorship firm is tied with the life of the proprietor. On the demise of the proprietor, the firm also comes to an end. The remaining assets or liabilities are then transferred to the legal heirs as per law by the court of law.
4.
Fundraising or Angel Investment
The proprietorship firm does not have the ability to raise equity fund from angel investors or the venture capital firms. The banks, NBFC and other financial institutions also do not favour financing of a proprietorship firm.
