Match structure to ambition
The right structure depends on liability, funding plans, compliance appetite and number of owners.
The options
- Sole Proprietorship: simplest, but unlimited personal liability
- One Person Company (OPC): limited liability for solo founders, more compliance
- LLP: limited liability, lighter compliance, hard to raise equity
- Private Limited: best for raising capital and ESOPs, most compliance
If investors are in your future, start as Private Limited. Otherwise pick the lightest structure that limits your liability.
