However, LLC is most commonly chosen because of its ease towards single taxation and because of its adaptability. On the other hand, budding entrepreneurs wanting to appeal to venture capitalists and angel investors to raise funds, they must incorporate as a C-Corp and not an LLC. Also, if the company is planning to go public, C-corp would be the ideal choice to make.

Advantages of Limited Liability Company:

Limited Liability Corporation is an easy choice for many businesses as it offers extensive growth possibilities, poses very little risk, has no shareholders limit and gives increased credibility for the business incorporated. Moreover, when a company is incorporated under an LLC, taxes need not be paid on the trade profits at the legal entity stage. Rather, the taxes from the company’s profits is filed on the proprietors’ tax returns.

Advantages of C corporation:

C corporation is advantageous to foreign businesses majorly because of the multiple tax planning opportunities and the free transferability of shares it offers. Additionally, it also gives legal protection and has no limits on the number of shareholders or the number of owners. Although in C corporation, the profits are always taxed at the legal entity level. For example, if the profits and the resources of the business are split among the stakeholders as a bonus then the stakeholders are entitled to pay their corporate income tax dues on the profits thus creating a double taxation scenario.
