Types of Business Structures for Freelancers

Freelancers can choose from different types of business structures for registration, depending on their needs and long-term goals:

1. Sole Proprietorship:
   The simplest form of business structure. Ideal for freelancers who want to work alone and don’t need a complex structure. However, personal assets are at risk in case of liabilities.

2. Limited Liability Partnership (LLP):
   Provides limited liability protection, meaning personal assets are protected. This structure is ideal for freelancers who plan to expand and partner with others.

3. Private Limited Company (Pvt Ltd):
   A more formal business structure suitable for freelancers who wish to scale their business and get access to funding. This structure offers limited liability protection and allows for better credibility and trust.

4. One Person Company (OPC):
   A newer form of business registration in India that allows an individual to start a company with limited liability protection. It’s suitable for freelancers who want the flexibility of a company without partners.
