Your decision will determine your company's legal and operational structure, and it will determine liability, taxes, finance, and management.

Typical structures are: 

1. Sole Proprietorship 

2. Partnership 

3. Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) 

4. Private Limited Company 

5. One Person Company (OPC) 

Sole Proprietorship: Single Control 

The simplest form is a sole proprietorship with a single individual at the top. Unlimited personal liability of the individual and personal assets are exposed. Taxation on the individual's personal income. Simple and quick to establish, suitable for small-scale activities. 

Partnership: Joint Venture 

Partnership is two or more persons sharing the profit and loss on a fifty-fifty basis. Partnerships are venture of a higher risk nature. Deed of partnership spells out the conditions and terms. 

Limited Liability Partnership (LLP): Partnership with Protection

One Person Company (OPC): Alone with Corporate Freedom
