To file the DIR-3 KYC for a current financial year, the KYC for the previous year must already be completed. If the prior year’s filing isn’t done, a penalty of ₹5,000 per director for DIN activation is charged by ministry which is to be born by client at actuals. No new filings can be processed until the Director Identification Number (DIN) is activated by completing the pending KYC and paying the penalty.
-
The Auditor appointment must be completed within 15 days of the AGM. In case of existing companies, NOC and SRN of ADT-3 filed by the previous auditor will be required(not applicable to newly incorporated companies where no first auditor has been appointed).

We are committed to completing your filings accurately and on time. To support this, we kindly request you to share the required documents with us well before the due dates. Your timely cooperation will help us serve you better and avoid any unnecessary late fees.
-
Director Regularization charges are not included in the package.
-
Since the MCA portal often updates its forms (such as AOC-4 and MGT-7A), additional details or documents may be required during filing. We will guide you if this happens so your filing stays on track.
-
If DSC is part of the package, kindly note that DSC associate and processing fees are included in our package but government fees will be payable by client at actuals on portal directly. Our DSC associate will guide you with the process wherever needed— please complete it and make complete it within 1–2 days.
-
We’ll proceed with your respective form filing availed by you once onboarding and documents verification are complete. In case of any website technical issues or documents issues or if the statutory due date is near/has passed, applicable late fees (if any) will be payable by the client. Our team will guide you throughout to ensure smooth filing.
-
If you choose to avail only specific services from the package, kindly note that Ebizfiling will not be responsible for any missed due dates or penalties related to services not opted for.
