A proprietorship firm means the firm is no different than its proprietor, i.e, the owner. It is not a company so to say and it is not necessary for a proprietorship firm to be registered under Companies Act or Establishment Act.
As the sole proprietor of the firm, the first thing that has to be done is opening a current bank account in the firm’s name. The firm can be a service provider or a product provider and on the basis of their category they need the following documents to run their firm:
The owner has overall control and claims the ownership stake
Requires no minimum capital investment
The profit solely belongs to the proprietor
The tax assistances avert double taxation
The owner is accountable only to file an annual tax return and pay tax as an individual
No separate tax for the firm
