Depends on the State, not the entity type:

• Shops and Establishments Acts are State laws. They apply to "establishments" (shops, commercial establishments, offices) in notified areas. A company's or OPC's office is an establishment. Most States require registration or intimation, often regardless of employee count (some exempt establishments with fewer than 10 employees from registration, requiring only intimation).

• Maharashtra (2017 Act): registration for 10 or more employees, intimation for fewer. Karnataka and Tamil Nadu: registration required for most.

• It's also needed for opening a current account and GST address proof in many cases.

• Factories (manufacturing with power and thresholds) come under the Factories Act / OSH Code instead.
