Overview
What is DIN Allotment & KYC?
DIN Allotment & KYC in Eluru District — in brief
A Director Identification Number (DIN) is a unique 8-digit identification number allotted to every individual intending to be appointed as a director in any company in India. For new companies, DIN is allotted during the SPICe+ incorporation process. Existing individuals can apply through Form DIR-3. Once allotted, DIN holders must file DIR-3 KYC (KYC of directors) annually by September 30 each year. Failure to file DIR-3 KYC results in the DIN being deactivated and a ₹5,000 reactivation fee. For clients in Eluru district, Andhra Pradesh, Lorven Tax handles every step online with CA review and status updates.
