What is a Sole Proprietorship?
A Sole Proprietorship is the simplest, most common and quickest business structure in India. It is owned and managed by a single individual with no distinction between the owner and the business. There is no separate registration law — the business gets recognition through registrations like GST, Udyam, shop license or professional tax.
Ideal for freelancers, small shop owners, home-based businesses and individual service providers, a sole proprietorship allows you to start instantly with minimal cost and maximum control over your business.
