Sole Property busiess is not separate nature of business. It is legal entity.Which is in a simple format.Sole Propfietor has not another indepedent existance, separate PAN.Any proprietor can do any business which is not harmful to the society.But for getting shop Act Licence the enclosed documents are required.
