LLP, OPC, Pvt Ltd, or Proprietorship? Understand what fits your business best.
Starting a business is exciting—but before you dive into branding or building your product, one of the first decisions you'll need to make is how to register your business. In India, there are multiple structures to choose from, each suited for different goals, ownership models, and compliance needs.
At Aarvis Solutions, we help entrepreneurs and professionals choose the right entity type, manage the paperwork, and ensure smooth registration—all with complete transparency.
Let’s walk through the most common business registration types in India and how to choose the right one:
Ideal for: Freelancers, consultants, and solo entrepreneurs.
A sole proprietorship is the simplest business form. It requires minimal compliance, and the owner and the business are legally the same entity.
✅ Pros: Easy to start, low cost, minimal compliance
⚠️ Cons: No limited liability, can't raise equity, limited scalability
💰 Aarvis Price: ₹1,500/-
Ideal for: Two or more individuals starting a small business together.
Partnerships are governed by the Indian Partnership Act, 1932. It's relatively informal and suitable for traditional businesses.
✅ Pros: Simple structure, shared responsibilities
⚠️ Cons: Unlimited liability, less credibility with banks
💰 Aarvis Price: ₹15,000/- (Includes deed drafting, PAN/TAN, bank a/c setup)
Ideal for: Small businesses that want limited liability but minimal compliance.
An LLP offers the benefits of limited liability while being easier to manage than a company.
✅ Pros: Separate legal entity, limited liability, no minimum capital
⚠️ Cons: Cannot raise equity funding
💰 Aarvis Price: ₹20,000/- (Includes LLP deed, PAN, TAN, bank a/c)
Ideal for: Solo founders who want a corporate identity and limited liability.
An OPC is like a Pvt Ltd Company but has only one shareholder and director. It’s perfect for freelancers or solo entrepreneurs expecting to grow.
✅ Pros: Limited liability, corporate status, eligible for loans
⚠️ Cons: Can't add co-founders later easily, higher compliance
💰 Aarvis Price: ₹15,000/-
Ideal for: Startups planning to raise funding or scale quickly.
The most popular choice for scalable businesses, a Pvt Ltd Company has a distinct legal identity and offers flexibility in ownership and fundraising.
✅ Pros: Can raise VC/angel funding, scalable, corporate image
⚠️ Cons: More compliance, formal structure
💰 Aarvis Price: ₹30,000/- (Includes MOA, AOA drafting)
Ideal for: Large-scale businesses or foreign entities entering India.
These structures are designed for companies planning to list publicly or operate at a national/international scale. Aarvis Solutions can assist with Foreign Company Registration and RBI/ROC compliance as well.
