Keep Every Director Active and Compliant — Annual DIR-3 KYC and Fresh DIN/DSC Support
DIR-3 KYC (Director Identification Number Know Your Customer) is an annual filing that every person who holds a DIN (Director Identification Number) or DPIN (Designated Partner Identification Number) must complete by 30th September each year. The DIR-3 KYC verifies the director's personal details — name, address, email, and mobile number — and ensures the DIN/DPIN remains active. If a director fails to file DIR-3 KYC by the deadline, the DIN/DPIN is automatically deactivated by the MCA. A deactivated DIN means the director cannot sign, file, or approve any MCA documents — effectively freezing all company filings until the DIN is reactivated by paying a ₹5,000 reactivation fee and filing the KYC form.
DIN/DPIN is a unique 8-digit number allotted by the MCA to every individual who wishes to become a director of a company or designated partner of an LLP. It is a one-time registration that lasts for life — but requires annual KYC to stay active. DSC (Digital Signature Certificate) is the electronic equivalent of a physical signature — mandatory for company/LLP incorporation, ROC filings, GST, income tax audits, and e-tenders. Without a valid DSC, no director can digitally sign company documents.

Frequently Asked Questions
What happens if I don't file Director KYC (DIR-3) by 30th September?
Your DIN is deactivated the next day (1st October). You cannot sign any MCA documents, filings, or resolutions until the DIN is reactivated. Reactivation requires paying ₹5,000 government fee and filing the KYC form.
Can one person hold multiple DINs?
No. One individual can hold only one DIN. If you have been allotted multiple DINs by mistake, the extra DINs must be surrendered by filing DIR-5.
How long is a DSC valid?
DSCs are valid for 1, 2, or 3 years from the date of issuance. VITTAX recommends the 2-year DSC for cost efficiency. Renewal is required before expiry.
