Inc. = Incorporated

According to the Webster Dictionary 1 : united in one body 2 : formed into a legal corporation

Hello Hai,

The term Inc. (Incorporated) is the American equivalent of the British term Ltd. (Limited). When used in the name of a company, it signifies a type of legal entity different than an individual, a partnership or a proprietorship. A company incorporates in order to obtain certain tax advantages and to limit the liability of corporate officers and individual shareholders.
