A Sole Proprietorship is a business wholly owned by a single individual using personal name as per his / her identity card or trade name.

Small-business bookkeeping is the process of keeping records and compiling information about what is going on in your business financially. Because sole proprietorships are closely held businesses, it is especially important to understand where your personal finances end and your business finances begin, and vice versa.

If you run your business as a sole proprietorship, you are not legally required to keep a separate bank account for your business. However, it is a good idea to do so unless your business is as simple and straightforward as a freelancing gig with a small handful of clients. If your sole proprietorship business has multiple types of expenditures, such as rent, materials and payroll, having a separate bank account makes it considerably easier to track and categorize your business activities.
