INC-4 — OPC Member/Nominee Change update your OPC nominee, filed correctly.
INC-4 filing services in Mumbai and across India — change of member or nominee in a One Person Company, fresh nominee consent, and intimation to the Registrar in Form INC-4.
A One Person Company has a unique requirement built into its structure — because it has a single member, the Companies Act, 2013 requires that member to name a nominee who will take over the company on the member's death or incapacity. The nominee is what allows an OPC to continue as a going concern despite having only one owner.
That nominee arrangement is not fixed forever. The nominee may withdraw consent, the member may wish to appoint a different nominee, the existing nominee may become ineligible, or the membership of the OPC itself may change. In every such case, the change must be intimated to the Registrar of Companies in Form INC-4 — the dedicated form for a change of member or nominee in a One Person Company.
Our INC-4 practice handles the full process — obtaining the written consent of the incoming nominee in the prescribed form, recording the withdrawal of the outgoing nominee where applicable, preparing the supporting documents, and filing Form INC-4 with the Registrar within the timeline. We make sure the OPC's nominee record stays current and the company remains correctly compliant.
