Sole Proprietorship Registration

The simplest way to start a business, owned and managed entirely by a single person.

Overview

Start your solo business the simple way

A Sole Proprietorship is the simplest and most common way to start a small business in India. The business and the owner are treated as the same, which makes it quick and inexpensive to set up.

There is no separate incorporation for a proprietorship. Instead, it is established through registrations such as GST, Udyam (MSME) or a Shop and Establishment licence, depending on your business.

Our experts advise on the right registrations and set everything up for you.
