1. Limited Liability: It is one of the most important factors of a Pvt. Ltd. company that saves the members from being personally affected by the fall but not the growth of the company. If the company incurs big losses, more than its assets, the owners or the members, personal assets remain untouched. They are not required to liquidate and liquefy their personal properties to pay off the debts and losses the company makes protecting the individual investors.
2. Perpetual Business Entity: A Pvt. Ltd. company, once registered, is considered as an individual under the law. It remains unharmed under different situations and survives unless the company is winded up following a legal procedure. It means that the status of the members do not impact on the life of the business. So even if the owners pass away, go bankrupt, or have to liquefy assets, a Pvt. Ltd. company remains unaffected and continues to live till someone closes it.
3. Separate Legal Identity: Unlike a proprietorship firm, a One Person Company once registered holds a separate legal identity form its stake holder, similar to Private Limited Company.
4. Less Compliance: One Person Company has to perform some annual compliances similar as private limited companies but there are some exemptions also like no requirement of Board Meeting or Annual General Meeting as there is only One stake holder.
