## Why Proprietorship?

The fastest and cheapest way to legitimise your business and open a current bank account.

01

### Easiest to Start

No minimum capital, no MOA/AOA, no ROC filing. Just GST or MSME registration and you're a legal business.

02

### Full Control

You are the business. All decisions, all profits — no board meetings, no shareholders to answer to.

03

### Open a Current Account

Banks require business proof to open a current account. GST/MSME certificate gives you exactly that.

04

### Minimal Compliance

No annual ROC filings. Just ITR once a year and GST returns if registered. Very low compliance burden.

## Legal Framework

There is no single central act for proprietorships. Legitimacy comes from obtaining business registrations.

**MSMED Act 2006 / Udyam Registration (2020):** Government of India's official MSME certificate — widely accepted as business proof for bank accounts and government tenders.

**CGST Act 2017, Section 22:** Mandatory GST registration if turnover exceeds ₹40 lakh (goods) or ₹20 lakh (services). GST certificate also serves as primary business identity proof.

**Telangana Shops & Establishments Act:** Shop Act license required for commercial premises in Telangana. Optional for home-based businesses.
