The Companies (Appointment and Qualification of Directors) Third Amendment Rules.

i) eForm DIR-3 KYC is to be filed by an individual who holds DIN and is filing his KYC details for the first time or by the DIN holder who has already filed his KYC once in eform DIR-3 KYC but wants to update his details.

ii) Web service DIR-3-KYC-WEB is to be used by the DIN holder who has submitted DIR-3 KYC eform in the previous financial year and no update is required in his details.

Due Date: 30th Sept 2021

What happens if eForm DIR-3 KYC is not filed within the specified due date?

As per MCA notification , If a Director, fails to file eform DIR-3 KYC before the expiry of the due date, then MCA21 system will mark his/her DIN as ‘De-activated’ with a reason as ‘Non-filing of DIR-3 KYC’.

However, the de-activated DIN shall be re-activated only after eform DIR-3 KYC is filed along with payment of Rs. 5000.

In order to avoid any delay which would result in payment of Rs. 5000, the Directors are advised to file the same before the due date.
