Hi!

Good luck to you for success in practice. Please take note of the following while certifying e-forms.

1.DIN-1 - income tax PAN and address proof (ie; licence/phone bill or elec.bill not more than 2 months old).The name in the income-tax pan should match with the applicant's name, spelling errors to be checked, no initials are allowed for DIN-1.Father's name should also be as per the ID proof submitted. Initials are not allowed.The ID proof and address should also be self-attested by the applicant. Verification in annexure-1 should also be signed by the applicant & attached to form DIN-1.

2.Form 1A- One of the promoters should be the applicant. The PAN or approved DIN of the promoter and digital signature are required. If the form is certified by a professional, only one name is required. The proposed name should be checked against the existing names in the MCA portal , to avoid duplication. The proposed capital and main object to be specified, these details cannot be later changed in form -1. similarly, the promoters shown in form 1A cannot be changed later expect by way of NOC from other promoters. DIN is mandatory for proposed directors.

3.Form 18 , 32 etc; - while filing form 32, ensure that the correct designation and date of appointment are given. For cessation of directorship, written consent is compulsory.
