What is DIN eKYC (DIR-3 KYC)?

DIN eKYC, filed through Form DIR-3 KYC, is the annual verification of personal details that the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) requires from every individual who holds a Director Identification Number. It is prescribed under Rule 12A of the Companies (Appointment and Qualification of Directors) Rules, 2014, and applies whether or not the person is currently acting as a director.

Every individual who holds a DIN as on 31 March of a financial year must file DIR-3 KYC on or before 30 September of the next financial year (the MCA occasionally extends this date). Keeping the DIN active is essential for ongoing company compliance, because a deactivated DIN blocks the director's digital signature on every MCA form.

Who Needs to File DIR-3 KYC?

Every person allotted a DIN on or before 31 March of the financial year, whether or not they currently act as a director.
Directors of private limited, public, and One Person Companies.
Designated partners of an LLP who hold a DIN or DPIN.
DIN holders who have resigned but whose DIN has not been surrendered.
Directors whose DIN is disqualified, who must still complete the KYC.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the due date for DIR-3 KYC?

Generally 30 September of the financial year following the one in which you held the DIN as on 31 March. The MCA has extended this date in some years, but it is safest to file by 30 September to avoid deactivation.

What is the difference between the DIR-3 KYC e-Form and the web service?

The e-Form is used for first-time filers and whenever details such as mobile number, email, or address have changed. The web-based DIR-3 KYC is a simpler OTP verification for DIN holders whose details are unchanged from the last filing.

Is DIR-3 KYC required if I am not currently a director?

Yes. Anyone who has been allotted a DIN must file the KYC every year until the DIN is formally surrendered, even if they are not presently on any board.

What happens if I miss the DIR-3 KYC deadline?

The DIN is marked 'Deactivated due to non-filing of DIR-3 KYC'. It can be reactivated by filing the pending form along with a fee of Rs. 5,000, but until then the director cannot sign any MCA form.

What documents are needed for DIR-3 KYC?

Typically PAN, Aadhaar, a personal mobile number and email for OTP, proof of present address, a passport for foreign nationals, and the director's digital signature, with attestation by a practising professional.

Is any fee payable for filing DIR-3 KYC on time?

No. Filing within the due date carries no government fee. A fee of Rs. 5,000 applies only when the DIN has been deactivated for late filing.
