Which DIR-3 KYC form do I need?

DIR-3 KYC is required for the first filing or when email/mobile details change. DIR-3 KYC-WEB applies otherwise.

What is the DIR-3 KYC deadline now?

From 31 March 2026, DIR-3 KYC Web is filed once every three years, by 30 June (Rule 12A as amended by G.S.R. 943(E), 31 Dec 2025). Directors whose KYC is current are next due 30 June 2028; any other director should confirm the due date with their CA.

What happens if KYC is missed?

DIN is deactivated. Filing after the rule 12A(1) timeline, or for DIN re-activation, carries a ₹5,000 fee under G.S.R. 300(E), item VII (21 Apr 2026). On-time filing is nil.
