A sole proprietorship is the simplest way to run a business: you and the business are the same in law. There's no single registration for it, so it's recognised through registrations such as GST, Udyam or a shop and establishment licence.

Tsquare, a Coimbatore-based firm, handles proprietorship set-up online for clients anywhere in India.
