Mandatory Compliance
In order to maintain correct and accurate contact details such as Mobile, Email and Address of the director, every person who has been allotted a Director Identification Number (DIN) must file an annual KYC with the MCA before 30 September. Non filing would result in deactivation of DIN.
It is mandatory for every person who has been allotted a Director Identification Number (DIN) on or before the end of the last financial year, i.e. 31st March, to file the KYC of the director in the prescribed format called the DIR-3 (KYC) Form to the Registrar of Companies (ROC). This means every person with a DIN issued on or before 31st March 2024 is required to file the Form DIN KYC starting 1st April 2024 and must file their KYC before 30th September 2024
Even if a person has resigned as a director, doesn’t hold any directorship, or is not a designated partner of any LLP, they still need to file the Directors KYC. The only criterion for applicability of filing the Director KYC is the possession of a DIN. It is interesting to note that If a person has been allotted a DIN, the same cannot be surrendered if it has been previously used in any directorship or as a designated partner of an LLP. The DIN can only be surrendered if the DIN allotted is never used to become a director in a company or designated partner of an LLP.
The last date for filing of Director KYC for the Financial Year 2023-24 (ending on 31st March 2024) is 30th September 2024. However, the Director KYC can be filed on or after 1st April 2024 and until 30th September 2024. If the Annual Filing of the DIN KYC is not completed within the due date, then the status of the DIN is changed to Deactivated. A deactivated DIN primarily restricts the director’s ability to act as a director.
Every DIN holder whose DIN has been deactivated due to non-filing of DIR-3 KYC must file an eform known as DIR-3 KYC or perform KYC through the web service along with the applicable fee. Once the form (DIR-3 KYC) is filed, it is approved on an STP basis, and the system will automatically reactivate the DIN. Non-compliant DINs’ status would remain ‘Deactivated due to Non-filing of DIR-3 KYC.’ However, please note that filing of DIN KYC after its due date attracts an additional government fee of Rs. 5000/-.
To file Directors’ KYC on the MCA portal www.mca.gov.in, you can choose between web-based and form-based (DIR-3 KYC) methods. First-time filing of the director KYC is done via the prescribed pdf form “DIR-3 KYC”. While the subsequent DIN KYC filings can be done via web-based filing. The web-based filing is applicable only in the subsequent year of filing and when there is no change in the director’s particulars. If there are changes in the director’s particulars, an application in DIR-6 must be filed first before completing the DIR-3(KYC) form. Please note that in both methods, the director’s email and mobile number are verified by way of OTP.
