FAQ :
The deadline for filing DIR-3 KYC and DIR-3 KYC-WEB forms without a late filing fee has been extended to October 31, 2025.
DIR-3 KYC is an annual filing required by every individual holding a Director Identification Number (DIN) to verify and update their personal details with the MCA.
The usual penalty for delayed filing of DIR-3 KYC is Rs 5,000. Non-filing can also lead to the deactivation of the director's DIN.
This extension benefits company directors and professionals across India who need to complete their annual KYC compliance.
The e-form DIR-3 KYC is for directors needing to update personal details like mobile number or email ID, while the web-form DIR-3 KYC-WEB is for directors whose details have not changed from the previous year.
