MCA has amended the Companies (Appointment and Qualification of Directors) Rules, 2014 w.e.f. July 25,2019 and brought certain amendments in filing of form DIR-3 KYC by providing Web-based verification service for the Directors who have been allotted Director Identification Number (DIN). Hence, introducing Web-based DIR-3 KYC.
