Close One Person Company

 


Close One Person Company (OPC) in India

Legally Wind Up Your Inactive or Unwanted OPC with Expert Support


Overview

A One Person Company (OPC) can be voluntarily closed when it is no longer in operation or required. The process ensures all legal liabilities are cleared, and the company is officially struck off from the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) records. SSA Tax helps you navigate the legal procedures to ensure a smooth and compliant closure of your OPC.


Why Close an OPC?

  • Business operations discontinued

  • No future plans for the company

  • Avoid unnecessary compliance costs

  • Transitioning to another business structure

  • Legal requirement to close non-active entities


Modes of Closure

1. Fast Track Exit (Strike Off under Section 248)

For OPCs that haven’t been operational for 1+ years.

2. Voluntary Winding Up

If company has assets/liabilities and wants a formal liquidation process.

FAQs

Q1. What is the difference between winding up and strike-off?
Strike-off is for inactive companies; winding up is more formal and is used if the company has assets/liabilities to liquidate.

Q2. Can an OPC be closed voluntarily within a year of incorporation?
No, the OPC must be inactive for at least 1 year before applying under Fast Track Exit.

Q3. What if the company has assets or liabilities?
Voluntary winding-up procedure must be followed with approval from the Tribunal (NCLT).

Q4. Can the same name be reused in future?
No, once the name is struck off, it cannot be used immediately. MCA restrictions apply.
