What is Director Identification Number (DIN)?
The Ministry of Company Affairs (MCA) has launched a major e-Governance initiative MCA 21 . It envisages e-filing of all documents related to company matters on the MCA portal. Director Identification Number (DIN) is a unique identification number for an existing director or a person intending to become the director of a company. In the scenario of e-filing, DIN will be a pre-requisite for filing of certain company related documents.
