How do I track DIR-3 KYC for directors?

Open Director KYC to see every director with a DIN and the next due date. Use the row menu and Update KYC to record a filing, a DIN status change or a contact change.

Read the page

Click Director KYC in the left menu. You see one row for each person who has a DIN, even if they sit on many boards. Five boxes at the top show how many are Up to date, Due soon, Overdue, Change pending or Deactivated. Click a box to filter.

DIR-3 KYC is now due every three financial years, by 30 June. DueFiler works out the next due date from the last filing or the DIN allotment date. You cannot type a status by hand.

Record a KYC filing

  1. Open the ⋯ menu on the director’s row and click Update KYC.
  2. Stay on the Filing tab.
  3. Type the Last KYC filed date. If this is the first time, you can type the DIN allotment date instead.
  4. Click Save filing.
What you will seeA green message says the filing is saved. The next due date is worked out again.

Record a change in contact details

If a director’s mobile number, email or address changes, a fresh KYC must be filed within 30 days. This is separate from the three-year cycle.

  1. In Update KYC, open the Contact change tab.
  2. Choose the Field changed and type the Effective date, the Old value and the New value.
  3. Click Record change.
  4. When the filing is done, click Mark filed next to that change.

Record a DIN problem

  1. In Update KYC, open the DIN status tab.
  2. Choose the new status, for example Deactivated (non-filing of KYC), and click Save DIN status.
  3. After the DIN is reactivated on the MCA portal, click Record Reactivation.
Good to knowWhen a DIN is not Approved, DueFiler flags the director and tells the people who manage Director KYC. The flag stays until you record the reactivation.

Cannot see this on your screen?

  • Your role must be one of these: Admin, Partner, Company Secretary. If it is not, ask your Admin to check your access.
  • Director KYC depends on your firm’s plan. If its menu item shows a small lock, your plan does not include it yet. Ask your Admin.
  • If your firm’s trial has ended, DueFiler is read-only. You can see everything, but you cannot add or change anything.
