Please advise on the following:

An individual has DPIN and is already a designated partner in an LLP. Now he wishes to incorporate a Private Company in which he also proposes to be a Director.

How can he apply for DIN when the new Form DIN1 requires a declaration to the effect that "the applicant has not been allotted a Director Identification Number (DIN) under section 266B of the Companies Act,1956 or a Designated Partner Identification Number (DPIN) under section 7 of the Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008."

What is the way out?

First of all DPIN has been abolished w.e.f.9th July, 2011.

Secondly, the person having DPIN can also have DIN number the declaration in DIN 1 is as under:-

"I HAVE NOT BEEN ALREADY ALLOTTED DIRECTOR IDENTIFICATION NUMBER UNDER SECTION 266B OF THE COMPANIES ACT, 1956."
