What is a director identification number?
What is DIN?
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs provides a unique number to anyone who wants to become a director of an Indian company. The DIN number is an 8-digit unique number that allows a person legally to act as the Director of a Company. A DIN number can only be issued once to an individual. An individual who is acting as Director for multiple companies will not need to get multiple DINs.
Rules to obtain DIN:
- For new companies, the first three Directors can only apply for a DIN through the SPICe Plus Form.
- The Directors of existing companies can only apply for a DIN Number using the DIR-3 form.
- If the company is already established, then the director applicant must provide a copy of any director of that company.
- E.g. Mr. Manoj is applying for DIN to become a director at ABC company. Mr. Manoj needs a resolution from the board of “ABC” company, along with a digital signature from any existing director.
Validity of DIN:
The DIN number will remain valid for life once it is issued to a director.
The MCA can deactivate the director or disqualify him if he or his company violates any laws, guidelines, or notifications.

The Director Identification Number (DIN), not only helps to identify the director, but it also allows him to be linked with his past and current participation in other companies.
