Disadvantages of Proprietorship

Be that as it may, However, after the startup phase, a Proprietorship doesn’t offer the Proprietor a large group of advantages such as separate legal substance, limited liability proprietorship, corporate status, transferability, perpetual existence – which are desirable features for any business.

Separate Legal Entity::

A Sole Proprietorship doesn’t have a separate legal substance. Henceforth, opening a bank current account in the name of a business can be an increasingly protracted procedure for a proprietorship when compared to a Company or LLP.

Limited Liability Protection:

A Sole Proprietorship does not provide the Proprietor with limited liability protection. Hence, in case any loss or liability is created by the Proprietorship business, the Proprietor would be held personally liable for payment.

Transferability:

A Proprietorship business is linked to the PAN of the Proprietor. Hence, any license or registration obtained in the name of the Proprietorship cannot be transferred to any other person.

Perpetual Existence: 

A Sole Proprietorship business and the Proprietor are one and the same. Hence, the existence of the Sole Proprietorship is tied to the Proprietor. In case the Sole Proprietor is no more – the existence of the Sole Proprietorship business would also end.

Fundraising:

A Proprietorship business cannot raise equity funds from Angel Investors, Venture Capital firms and Private Equity funds. Banks also have restrictions on the amount of money they can lend to a Sole Proprietorship business.
