This document outlines the process for reactivating deactivated or disqualified DINs, ensuring compliance with the Companies Act, 2013 and MCA regulations. Asktrix provides comprehensive support for DIN reactivation, helping directors restore their eligibility and maintain corporate compliance.
The DIN reactivation process is governed by the Companies Act, 2013 and the Companies (Registration of Directors) Rules, 2014.
Our streamlined process ensures quick and hassle-free DIN reactivation:
Determine the specific reason for DIN deactivation by reviewing MCA records and compliance status. This helps in preparing the appropriate documentation for reactivation.
Submit Form DIR-3 for new DIN application or DIR-5 for deactivation/reactivation. Ensure all supporting documents are properly attested and submitted.
Pay the applicable fees for DIN reactivation as prescribed by MCA. Fees vary based on the type of application and urgency of processing.
Submit the complete application along with all required documents to the Registrar of Companies (ROC) through the MCA portal.
The ROC verifies the submitted documents and compliance status. Additional information may be requested if required.
Upon successful verification, the DIN is reactivated and the director receives confirmation of the reactivation status.
The DIN reactivation process typically takes 7 to 30 working days from the date of submission, depending on the complexity of the case and ROC workload.
There is no statutory limit on how many times a DIN can be reactivated, provided all compliance requirements are met.
