Which business structure should I choose in India?
It turns on a few questions: if you plan to raise equity or issue ESOPs you need a Private Limited company; if you are bootstrapped and owner-run, an LLP is lighter and cheaper; a solo founder wanting limited liability can use an OPC; and a proprietorship suits small, low-risk, single-owner businesses.
What is the difference between an LLP and a Private Limited company?
Both give limited liability. A Private Limited company can raise equity and issue ESOPs but carries a heavier compliance load - statutory audit every year, board meetings, ROC annual filings. An LLP cannot take equity investment but is cheaper to run, with audit required only above turnover of Rs 40 lakh or contribution of Rs 25 lakh.
Can I convert my structure later?
Yes - proprietorships can be succeeded by an LLP or company, and LLPs can convert to a Private Limited company - but conversion costs time, money and sometimes tax. Choosing right on day one, based on whether you will raise funds, is far cheaper than converting later.
