Step 2- Fill in the DIN details

• The DIN must be filled in on the KYC form if the status is ‘Approved.’
• Directors who have had their DIN deactivated due to non-submission of the KYC Form can reactivate their DIN by filling out the form after the statutory due date and paying late filing fees.

Step 3- Fill out the DIR- 3 KYC Form with the required information.

Name and relevant credentials

The applicant must enter his own first and last name, as well as his father’s first and last name. There are a few things to keep in mind:

• The director must give his name as it appears on his PAN card.
• The address provided in the form will be verified against the PAN database.
• Acronyms, single alphabets, and short forms are not permitted.

Nationality

• A director needs to declare his nationality
• Directors with foreign nationality must declare the nationality mentioned in their passport

Age Declaration

A director’s date of birth (DOB) must be entered in the DD/MM/YYYY Because anyone under the age of 18 is ineligible to file this application, an age declaration is required.

Address

A director’s permanent residential address must be entered and proof of permanent address must be attached. When the current residential address differs from the permanent residential address, the current residential address must be provided.

Note: A foreign pin code can be furnished only when the state selected is “NA”.

Step 4- PAN verification

Verification of the Permanent Account Number (PAN) is required. A director must first input his PAN, after which he must click the ‘Verify income-tax PAN’ button. The system next checks the director’s information using the PAN card number.

Note: For successful authentication, the PAN provided in the form must match the PAN indicated in the DSC. When foreign nationals do not have a PAN, the name on the form must match the name on the DSC in order for authentication to be successful.

Step 5- Update contact details and verify OTP

• A director must update his contact information by providing his phone number and e-mail address, both of which must be validated using an OTP.
• When a director inputs these contact details, he must verify them using an OTP by selecting the ‘Generate OTP’ button once they have been submitted. OTPs are issued to both the mobile number and the email address separately.
• Only directors who are not Indian citizens are permitted to use country codes other than +91/91/0.
• It should be remembered that an OTP can be issued to the telephone number and email address up to 10 times per day and twice every 30 minutes against one form.

Attested Attachments to be made

An applicant must attest and upload the documents listed above. Any additional attachments must be signed digitally by the applicant.

Step 6- Authentication of e-Form

The e-Form must be validated, which means it must be digitally signed by a Chartered Accountant/Cost Accountant or a Company Secretary who is licensed to practice their profession. The provision of the practicing professional’s information, as well as their digital signature, is a critical responsibility that cannot be overlooked.

After thorough proofreading, click the ‘Submit’ button.

Step 7- SRN Generation

When the e-Form DIR-3 KYC is successfully submitted, an SRN is produced and assigned to the user for future MCA correspondence.

Step 8- Email communication

On his personal email ID, the applicant will receive an email acknowledging receipt of the form. Once the email of approval is received, filing eForm DIR-3 KYC is complete.
