You cannot convert proprietorship concern into company. However a company can take over the business carried by a sole proprietorship. For this you need to incorporate a company following usual formalities viz., getting the name approval by filing Form 1A and then within 60 days of name approval filing Form 1 for Incorporation alongwith MOA, AOA, Form 18 , Form 32 and Power of Attorney.
However in the main object clause of MOA specify taking over the business of M/s. ....................(Proprietorship name) as one of the main objects.
