One Person Company (OPC) registration cost in India

The cost of registering an OPC is mostly your state's stamp duty, plus a Digital Signature Certificate for each director (around ₹1,500 each) and a professional fee. The MCA government fee is nil up to ₹15 lakh authorised capital. Because stamp duty is state-set, the cheapest states — like Sikkim at ₹0 — cost far less than the dearest, Punjab at ₹10,025.

What goes into the cost

State stamp duty
Levied on incorporation by the state. The one component that changes from state to state, and the main driver of the total.
Digital Signature Certificate (DSC)
Each director or partner needs one to sign filings — roughly ₹1,500 each as a market estimate.
Professional / CA fee
What your CA or filing service charges to prepare and file the forms. Edit the field to match a real quote.
MCA government fee
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs charges nil for authorised capital up to ₹15 lakh, so most startups pay nothing here.

Is an OPC the right structure?

A single-founder company with limited liability — one director, one member, lighter compliance than a Private Limited.

An OPC suits a solo founder who wants limited liability and a corporate identity without a co-founder or partner. You can convert to a Private Limited later when you take on co-founders or investment.
