🧾 MCA Compliance Alert 2025: DIN KYC, Board Report Updates & e‑Form Fee Waiver

Your Essential Guide to Stay Compliant — Powered by IndiaFills.com

🚨 Why This Is Critical Right Now

As of 14 July 2025, the MCA rolled out new Companies (Accounts) Amendment Rules—tightening board-report disclosures, audited filing standards, and introducing electric, digital-first compliance via MCA V3.
A temporary fee waiver for 13 MCA e‑forms (including AOC‑4 & MGT‑7) was in place for filings due between 18 June and 31 July, allowing submissions until 15 August without penalty.
The annual DIN KYC (Form DIR‑3 KYC or KYC‑WEB) deadline is 30 September 2025. Missing it means ₹5,000 late fee and DIN deactivation—preventing you from filing other MCA forms.

1️⃣ What Changed for Corporate Compliance?

Effective from 14 July 2025, new rules require:

Automatic e‑filing of previously annexed forms (AOC‑1 & AOC‑2)
Expanded Board Report disclosures:
- All complaints under the POSH Act (sexual harassment at workplace)
- Compliance status under the Maternity Benefit Act
Filing of extracts of Board and Auditor reports digitally
Filing via MCA V3 only—no more manual PDF attachments

2️⃣ What About the e‑Form Fee Waiver?

A grace period existed between 18 June and 31 July 2025 during MCA’s portal upgrade from V2 to V3.
If your form was due or was resubmission due in that window, you could file by 15 August without extra fees.
This waiver has now closed—late filings post‑August may attract penalties.

3️⃣ Must-Know: DIN KYC Filing (DIR‑3 KYC)

Every person holding a DIN as of 31 March 2025 must file KYC by 30 September 2025—either:

DIR‑3 KYC (full e‑form) if you are filing for the first time or updating info, or
DIR‑3 KYC‑WEB if you filed previously and your details remain unchanged.

✅ Filing on time is free. ✅ If you miss the deadline: ₹5,000 penalty fee + deactivated DIN = cannot file other MCA forms.
