An August 2026 guide to forming an OPC through SPICe+: one member and a nominee (Form INC-3), the 120-day residency test, one OPC per person, no minimum capital, nil MCA fee up to Rs 15 lakh of capital plus Rs 1,000 for the name and state stamp duty, and voluntary conversion to a private limited at any time since 1 April 2021.
