DIR-3 KYC (Director KYC)

Annual director KYC filing, due September 30 — keep your DIN active and avoid the ₹5,000 reactivation fee.

Timeline: Same day to 1 working day per DIN

Priced on consultation

Scope varies by case — an expert confirms the professional fee in writing before any work begins. Government fees are always at actuals.

Overview

Every person who holds a Director Identification Number — whether or not they currently sit on any board — must complete the DIR-3 KYC filing each year by September 30. Miss it and MCA deactivates the DIN, which blocks you from signing any company filing; reactivation then costs a flat ₹5,000 government fee.

The filing itself is quick when done right: web-based KYC for directors whose details are unchanged, or the full DIR-3 KYC e-form (with professional certification) when a mobile number, email or other particulars have changed. ClearTLC's partner professional determines which route applies, completes the OTP verifications with you, and files before the deadline — with the acknowledgement stored in your vault and next year's reminder set automatically.

If you hold DINs across multiple companies or have co-directors, we handle the whole set in one engagement. Request a callback with the number of DINs and we will confirm the per-DIN fee in writing.

How it works

  1. 1

    Share details

    Provide DIN, KYC documents and the personal contact details to be verified.

  2. 2

    Verification

    We determine the web vs e-form route and complete mobile/email OTP verification with you.

  3. 3

    Filed with MCA

    The KYC is filed (with professional certification where the e-form applies).

  4. 4

    Acknowledgement delivered

    Filing acknowledgement lands in your vault; next year's reminder is scheduled.

Documents required

  • DIN of each director
  • PAN and Aadhaar
  • Personal mobile number and email (for OTP verification)
  • Passport, if held
  • DSC of the director (for the e-form route)

What you get

  • Filed DIR-3 KYC with acknowledgement, per DIN
  • Confirmation of active DIN status
  • Automatic reminder for next year's cycle

Frequently asked questions

I am not currently a director in any company. Do I still need to file?

Yes — the obligation attaches to the DIN itself, not to any directorship. Anyone allotted a DIN on or before March 31 must file by September 30 of that year.

What is the difference between web KYC and the e-form?

If your particulars are unchanged from last year, a simple web-based OTP verification suffices. Any change in mobile, email or personal details requires the full DIR-3 KYC e-form with professional certification — we route you correctly so the filing is accepted.

What actually happens if I miss September 30?

The DIN is marked deactivated; you cannot sign or be named in MCA filings until you file the KYC with a ₹5,000 government fee. For an active company this can stall every other filing, so the deadline matters more than it looks.

Can you file for all directors of my company together?

Yes — we routinely handle the full board in one engagement, with per-DIN pricing confirmed up front.

GST & invoicing: Invoiced under SAC 998216 (other legal services) with 18% GST on the professional fee.
