Overview of the Proprietorship to Pvt Ltd Company

  • Due to the low compliance requirements, many business owners in India originally set up as single proprietorships. The company will experience a boom and increase its sales after a specific number of years.
  • A sole proprietorship business will now be transformed into a private limited company in order to reduce responsibility, separate the bank accounts and tax filing of an individual, and to restrict their exposure.
  • By changing a sole proprietorship business into a private limited company, which is treated as a separate legal entity and reduces liability risk, personal assets are not affected unless fraud is involved.
  • The shares of the private limited company are not offered to the public and will be governed under the 2013 Companies Act. In a similar vein, the 1961 Income Tax Act's distinctive tax structure will be distinct from sole proprietorships, which treat their income as individual income.
