Home / Change in Business Structure / OPC to Private Limited Conversion Conversion

Last updated: 2 October 2026
When your OPC needs a co-founder, investors or more directors, it can convert into a private limited company — voluntarily and at any time. Our team handles the new members, altered documents and ROC filings.
Since the Companies (Incorporation) Amendment Rules, 2021, an OPC can convert into a private limited company voluntarily at any time. The earlier requirement to convert on crossing ₹50 lakh capital or ₹2 crore turnover, and the two-year waiting period, have been removed.
Based on the Companies Act, 2013 and the rules made under it. Last updated: 27 September 2026.
