Choosing a legal structure is the first big decision every founder makes. The right answer depends on three things: who owns the business, how you plan to fund it, and how much compliance you are ready to carry.
Private Limited Company
The standard choice for teams that plan to raise investment or build credibility with larger clients. It offers limited liability and a separate legal identity, with annual ROC filings as the trade-off.
Limited Liability Partnership (LLP)
Ideal for professional partnerships. It combines limited liability with lighter compliance — Form 8 and Form 11 annually — but is less suited to equity fundraising.
One Person Company (OPC)
Built for solo founders who want corporate status while keeping full control.
