Under this main a characteristic individual who is an Indian Citizen and occupant in India can consolidate an OPC or be a candidate for the sole individual from an OPC.
    
2. Memorandum of affiliation:
   The 2013 Act indicates the compulsory substance for the notice of affiliation which is similar to the common arrangements of the 1956 Act and alludes between alia to the accompanying:
   
   • Name of the organization with final word as restricted or private restricted all things considered

     2. Objects accidental or subordinate to the achievement of the primary item
     3. Other objects of the organization [section 4(1) of 2013 Act] the fundamental reason inside the 1956 Act for such a grouping as started in area 149 of the 1956 Act, is to restrict an organization from beginning any business to seek after 'different objects of the organization' not coincidental or auxiliary to the most items besides fulfilment of specific necessities as endorsed in the 1956 Act like passing a unique goal, recording of announcement with the ROC with the impact of goal.

   An OPC with charitable objects could even be incorporated in accordance with the provisions of the 2013 Act. New objects like environment protection, education, research, welfare etc., are added to the prevailing object that a charitable company might be incorporated. As against the prevailing provisions under which a company's licence might be revoked, the 2013 Act provides that the licence are often revoked not only where the corporate contravenes any of the wants of the section but also where the affairs of the corporate are conducted fraudulently or during a manner violative of the objects of the corporate or prejudicial to public interest.

   Where a partnership has changed its name inside the most recent two years, the enterprise is needed to shading, append or print its previous names close by the new name of the company on business letters, charge heads, and so forth Notwithstanding, the 2013 Act is quiet on the cut off time that the past name should be kept [section 12 of 2013 Act].
    
8. Alteration of update The 2013 Act forces extra limitation on the adjustment of the thing proviso of the reminder for a partnership which had fund-raised from the overall population for at least one items referenced inside the outline and has any unutilised cash.
