ONE PERSON COMPANY (OPC)​
ONE PERSON COMPANY (OPC)​
91
Section 2(62) of Companies Act, 2013 defines a One-Person Company as “a company
that has only one person as a member”. Furthermore, members of a company are
nothing but subscribers to its MOA or any person who acquire shares in the Company
on a later date.
So, an OPC is effectively a company that has only one shareholder as its member.
Such companies are generally created when there is only one founder/promoter for the
business.
Entrepreneurs whose businesses lie in early stages prefer to create OPCs instead of sole
proprietorship business because of the several advantages that OPCs offer.
One Member with one Nominee and one Director can incorporate an OPC
OPC – Merits vs Demerits​
92
Advantages:
1. Lesser Compliance
Burden
2. Organised sector of
Proprietorship
business
3. Easy to get loans
from Banks
4. Easy to Manage
5. Complete control of
the company with
single ownership
Dis-advantages:
1. Restrictions on business activities: You
cannot incorporate an OPC under Section 8
of the Companies Act, 2013.
2. Taxation: OPC is not recognized in Income
Tax Act 1961. For taxation purpose One
Person Company is treated similar to
Private Limited Company and the tax rules
for a private limited company apply to an
OPC too.
3. Costlier to start as compared to sole
proprietorship
4. Member: It only allows one person to own
and run the entire business.

AOP/BOI
AOP/BOI
97
An Association of Persons (AOP) is a group of two or more people who come
together for a common purpose, such as running a business or carrying out a specific
project. According to the Income Tax Act of India, an AOP is not considered a legal
entity, but rather a collection of individuals who jointly undertake an activity with a
view to earning profits. In an AOP, each member shares the profits and losses of the
activity in proportion to their respective contributions.
A Body of Individuals (BOI) is also a group of two or more people who come together
for a common purpose, but unlike an AOP, a BOI is not formed with the intention of
earning profits. BOI is a type of association where the members collectively own and
manage a property or asset, and the income generated from that property is
distributed among the members.
REGISTRATION OF AOP/BOI
98
For a fact, whether it is a BOI or AOP, the purpose for which you are incorporating it does matter
by reason that registration procedures do vary as the applicable law (Act under which you shall
register) varies as well. If it for a profitable or profit oriented activity, the BOI or AOP would have
to be registered as a partnership firm or a private company. However, if it is for a non profitable
activity, the registration comes under the Societies Registration Act, 1860.
The steps for registration of AOP/BOI for non profitable purposes
REGISTRATION OF AOP/BOI

Submit all the above documents along with the following:
a. A covering letter requesting the registration of the society which shall be signed by a

TRUST
TRUST
10
8
A trust is a legal entity with separate and distinct rights, similar to a
person or corporation. In a trust, a party known as a trustor gives
another party, the trustee, the right to hold title to and manage
property or assets for the benefit of a third party, the beneficiary.
Trusts can be established to provide legal protection for the
trustor’s assets to ensure they are distributed according to their
wishes. Additionally, trusts can save time, reduce paperwork, and
sometimes reduce inheritance or estate taxes.
Trusts can also be used as a closed-end fund built as a public limited
company
VARIOUS TYPES OF TRUST
10
9
• Public Trust: A Public Trust essentially benefits the public at large. Unlike private trusts,
public trusts do not function under the Indian Trusts Act and are formed to serve a charitable
or religious purpose. Such Trust follows the general law, which is in effect for the time being.
Just like the private Trust, these trusts may be formed inter vivos by will.
• Private Trust: It is a legal arrangement created for the benefit of individuals other than a
public or charitable purpose. It is formed for the financial benefit of one or more
beneficiaries who are known to the Trustor. Private Trust doesn’t serve a charitable purpose,
and its benefits are only accessible to designated beneficiaries. Such trusts are bound to
follow the provisions of the Indian Trusts Act, 1882
• Public Cum-Private Trust: As the name suggests, the Public-Cum-Private Trusts serve a
dual purpose. They are eligible to use their income for the public as well as private purposes.
That implies that beneficiaries of such Trust could be either public or private persons or both.
Procedure for Registering a Trust
11

Step 1: Select an Apt Name for the Trust The first and foremost step in the process of Trust
registration is the name selection for the proposed Trust. Be mindful while serving such a purpose
and take the following points into account to avoid any hassles:
•The name should fit the provisions of the Emblems and Names Act, 1950
•There should be no violation whatsoever when it comes to Trademark Act.
•The name should stay to the originality.
Step 2: Drafting of Trust Deed Drafting of Trust Deed is an important undertaking because it is the
only thing that makes the Trust legally enforceable.
In general, the trust deed consolidates the below-mentioned clauses:
Objects The Object clause reflects the object behind the formation of the Trust
Acceptance of Funds This clause enables the Trust to accept contributions, donations &
subscriptions from any person, government body, or charitable avenue, in the form of cash,
immovable assets without any charge on it. Furthermore, the clause states that any contributions
that hamper the Trust’s object are non-acceptable in nature.

COOPERATIVE SOCIETY
COOPERATIVE SOCIETY

Co-operative societies are profit-oriented entities which aim to obtain marketability for the
products produced by agricultural and other labour-intensive businesses. Based on the
recommendations of the Mirdha Committee and the Model Co-operative Societies Act, the
Government of India passed the Multi-State Co-operative Societies Act in 2002 which provided
for a democratic and autonomous working of the Co-operatives. This article mentions the
essential aspects of Co-operative Societies in India.
A co-operative society is often a voluntary association of individuals who come together with
the intention to work together and to promote their economic interest. These societies work
on the principle of self-help as well as mutual help. The primary goal is to provide support to
the members. Nobody leaves a co-operative society without earning a profit. People of the
same interest come forward as a group, pool their resources, utilise these resources in the best
possible manner and derive a common benefit out of it. It is an association of persons who
voluntarily share their resources for using them for the mutual welfare of its members itself. A
co-operative society is formed for the promotion of thrift, self-help and mutual assistance of
the members.

In a trust, a party known as a trustor gives another party, the trustee, the right to hold title to and manage property or assets for the benefit of a third party, the beneficiary. Trusts can be established to provide legal protection for the trustor’s assets to ensure they are distributed according to their wishes. Additionally, trusts can save time, reduce paperwork, and sometimes reduce inheritance or estate taxes. Trusts can also be used as a closed-end fund built as a public limited company
  • 109. VARIOUS TYPES OF TRUST 10 9 • Public Trust: A Public Trust essentially benefits the public at large. Unlike private trusts, public trusts do not function under the Indian Trusts Act and are formed to serve a charitable or religious purpose. Such Trust follows the general law, which is in effect for the time being. Just like the private Trust, these trusts may be formed inter vivos by will. • Private Trust: It is a legal arrangement created for the benefit of individuals other than a public or charitable purpose. It is formed for the financial benefit of one or more beneficiaries who are known to the Trustor. Private Trust doesn’t serve a charitable purpose, and its benefits are only accessible to designated beneficiaries. Such trusts are bound to follow the provisions of the Indian Trusts Act, 1882 • Public Cum-Private Trust: As the name suggests, the Public-Cum-Private Trusts serve a dual purpose.

Furthermore, the clause states that any contributions that hamper the Trust’s object are non-acceptable in nature.
