The MCA vide General Circular No. 09/2022 dated September 28, 2022 extends the timeline for filing e-form DIR-3-KYC and web-form DIR-3-KYC-WEB without fee upto October 15, 2022.
Director’s KYC Filing is an annual compliance and applies to every person who was allotted a DIN (Director Identification Number) on or before 31st March 2022. The purpose of filing the DIR-3 KYC form to the ROC is to keep the records of the ROC updated with the correct address, mobile and email address of the directors/designated partners.
It is a mandatory filing, and if filed within the due date of 30th September 2022, there is no government fee. The DIN Numbers for which the KYC is not filed within its due date get deactivated, and the same can be activated after the filing of DIR-3 KYC with late filing fees of Rs. 5000 for each defaulting director or the designated partner.
Representation has been received in the Ministry requesting for an extension of time beyond September 30, 2022 for filing e-form DIR-3-KYC and web form DIR-3-KYC-WEB without payment of fee.
The matter has been examined in the Ministry and it has been decided to allow filing of e-form DIR-3-KYC and web-form DIR-3-KYC-WEB without filing fee upto October 15, 2022.
