All you need to know

What is DIN?

DIN number or Directors Identification Number is a unique identification number provided by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs to an individual who intends to be a director of a company in India.

 

DIN number or Directors Identification Number of a director is a unique 8-digit number which allows a person to legally act as a Director of a company. The DIN number is granted only one time to a person and an individual acting as the Director of multiple companies does not require to obtain multiple DINs to act as a director in those companies.

Rules for obtaining DIN:

  • In the case of new companies, first Directors up to number of 3 can apply for a DIN number only through the SPICe plus Form.
  • In the case of already existing companies, the Directors can apply for a DIN number only through the DIR-3 Form.
