DIN KYC Compliance & Renewal
There is no annual renewal of DIN, but KYC is mandatory every year to maintain DIN validity.
Rule:
Rule 12A of the Companies (Appointment and Qualification of Directors) Rules, 2014
Filing Requirements:
Every individual allotted a DIN on or before 31st March must file their KYC by 30th September of the following financial year.
Two Methods for DIN KYC Compliance:
DIR-3 KYC (Form-Based):
- For individuals filing KYC for the first time or updating any personal details.
DIR-3 KYC Web:
- For DIN holders who filed DIR-3 KYC previously and have no changes in personal details.
DIN Reactivation (If Deactivated)
DIN is deactivated if KYC is not filed on time.
When KYC is not submitted within the due date, the DIN status becomes: Deactivated due to non-filing of DIR-3 KYC.
Reactivation Procedure:
