DIN Reactivation Online

A Director Identification Number (DIN) is a unique identification number allotted by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) to an individual for acting as a director in a company. Often, DINs get deactivated if the annual DIR-3 KYC compliance is not completed by the due date (September 30th). DIN reactivation is the process of restoring an inactive DIN to active status, which is crucial for individuals to continue acting as directors and for companies to maintain their legal compliances.

Why is a DIN Deactivated? The most common reason for DIN deactivation is the failure to file Form DIR-3 KYC by the due date, which is typically September 30th of every financial year. This annual compliance is mandatory for every individual who has been allotted a DIN, regardless of whether they are currently a director in any company or LLP.

Documents Required for DIN Reactivation Online in Chennai

1. Self-Attested PAN Card

A self-attested copy of the director’s PAN card is required as primary identity proof. It must match the details registered with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA). This document helps validate the director's legal identity for DIN reactivation.

2. Self-Attested Aadhaar Card

A self-attested copy of the Aadhaar card is required as address proof for Indian nationals, while foreign nationals must submit a copy of their valid passport. These documents support identity verification during KYC re-filing. Ensure clarity and consistency with other submitted records.

3. Recent Passport-Sized Photograph

A recent color passport-sized photograph is necessary for uploading during the DIN reactivation process. The image must be clear, front-facing, and match other identification records. It is digitally attached to the DIR-3 KYC form during submission.

4. Valid Mobile Number and Email IDn

An active mobile number and email ID are mandatory for receiving OTPs during the KYC verification process. These contact details are also linked to the director’s DIN for future updates. Make sure the same contact details are accessible and accurate during filing.

5. Digital Signature Certificate (DSC)

The director’s valid DSC is essential for authenticating the DIR-3 KYC form online. The form will not be accepted by the MCA portal without proper DSC-based verification. Ensure the DSC is registered with the MCA and is not expired at the time of filing.

Process or Compliance Filing Online in Chennai

step 1: Determine Deactivation Reason

The most common reason is non-filing of DIR-3 KYC.

Step 2: Form Preparation

The individual must prepare and file the e-Form DIR-3 KYC, even if late. This form acts as the primary tool for reactivation.

The e-Form DIR-3 KYC must be digitally signed by the applicant and certified by a practicing professional (CA, CS, or CMA).

Step 5: Pay Penalty

A penalty fee of Rs. 5,000 (as of current regulations) is levied for late filing of DIR-3 KYC, which must be paid during the process of reactivation.

Once the form is filed and the penalty is paid, the DIN is usually reactivated within a few hours or a day.
