Kickstart Your
Company Conversion in India – OPC, Private & Public
Your business may start small, but as it grows, its legal structure may need to evolve. Whether it is converting a One Person Company (OPC) into a Private Limited Company, turning a Private Limited into a Public Limited, or transforming a partnership into an LLP, each step requires precision and compliance with the Companies Act, 2013. At MrBrandy, we make company conversion in India simple by handling the paperwork, drafting resolutions, and filing with the Registrar of Companies (ROC). Our goal: a smooth transition that supports your long-term growth.
What is Conversion of Company
Company conversion is the legal process that lets a business change its entity type. This includes moving from a Private Limited Company to a Public Company, changing a Private Limited Company into a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP), or converting a One Person Company (OPC) to a Private Limited Company. Each type of conversion follows rules under Indian corporate law and requires careful planning, compliance, and statutory filings.
At MrBrandy, we provide end-to-end service & support to make the process quick, accurate, and stress-free.
