The authority held that failure to file DIR-3 KYC violates Rule 12A and attracts penalty under section 450. DIN deactivation does not absolve ongoing compliance responsibility.
The authority held that wrong disclosure of AGM details in Form MGT-7 attracts penalty under section 450. Accuracy in e-filings is the responsibility of the signatory.

Failure to file PAS-6 within time attracted penalties under section 450 despite subsequent compliance. Timely half-yearly reporting of share capital remains mandatory.
