Stepwise Process for Starting a Sole Proprietorship

Starting a proprietorship in India is easy—no formal incorporation required. Begin operations right away after meeting basic conditions. Just ensure you complete mandatory registrations to establish your firm's legal identity. Let us guide you the steps -

Documentation for starting proprietorship

Get started by arranging key KYC documents for the proprietor, including Aadhaar, PAN, and address proof. You'll also need proof of your business's principal address, such as a utility bill and an NOC from the property owner. Stay compliant and launch seamlessly.

Select a Unique Name for the Business

Pick a distinctive, legally valid name for your proprietorship that doesn't infringe on existing trademarks. It's best to trademark your business name for added protection. We can assist with registering your business name, domain, brand, and logo.
Unlock Benefits with MSME Registration

Proprietorships often qualify as MSMEs, unlocking benefits like collateral-free loans, interest subsidies, timely payments, and 50% IPR fee rebates. Plus, an MSME certificate is essential for opening a business bank account. We offer hassle-free MSME registration across India.

Proprietorship GST Registration Made Easy

Eligible sole proprietorships must register for GST to stay compliant. Submit your application and required documents on the GST portal. Once approved, you'll receive a GSTIN for all future GST transactions.
Obtain Shops & Establishment Registration


All non-manufacturing businesses, including sole proprietorships, must secure this registration from the State Labour Department. Submit an online or offline application along with the necessary documents to comply with legal requirements.

Essential Industry-Specific Business Licenses

Depending on your business activity and location, specific licenses may be mandatory. For example, an IEC Code is required for import/export operations, while FSSAI registration is essential for food-related businesses.

Checklist to Start a Sole Proprietorship Firm

Single Ownership:


The entire business is owned and managed by a single individual, who serves as the decision-maker and leader of the business operations.

Simple Formation:


Setting up a sole proprietorship is straightforward with minimal legal formalities. It has a low setup cost, making it a preferred choice for small businesses.

Full Control:


The proprietor has complete control over every aspect of the business, including operations, finances, and strategic decisions.

Unlimited Liability:

The owner is personally responsible for all debts and obligations of the business. If the business faces financial losses, the proprietor's personal assets may be used to settle liabilities.

  • Who can be a Sole Proprietor?

    Any person who is over 18 years, capable of entering into a lawful contract is eligible to start a proprietorship. The option to create a proprietorship is available to Indian Citizens only. However, NRIs and OCIs are permitted to establish proprietorship firms and invest only on a non-repatriation basis.

  • What is the minimum capital required to start a Proprietorship Firm?

    A proprietorship business can be started with any amount of capital, as there is no prescribed limit for it. The proprietor must infuse the capital into the proprietorship based on the nature and scale of its business activities. He can introduce or withdraw capital at any time from the accounts of the proprietorship business as drawings.

  • What documents are needed for opening a current account in the name of my Sole Proprietorship?

    To open a current account, you need proof of the existence of your business. Many banks will ask for MSME registration and/or GST Registration. In addition, you will need a PAN card and address and identity proofs.

  • What if I wish to convert from Sole Proprietorship to a Private Limited Company or Limited Liability Partnership?

    You can always choose to do so. The procedure is very simple. It is very common for sole proprietors to convert into partnerships and private limited companies at a later stage.

  • What compliance do I need to do once I register my firm as Sole Proprietorship?

    1. As a sole proprietor, you must file Income Tax Return annually.
    2. Also, you need to file your GST Return if you are registered under GST.
