Dear Anish,

You told you have lost your form 32. Does it mean that you have already filed form 32?

If yes, you are already a director in a compnay.

You are asking to start another company(?).

The Same DIN is enough for second company. But you will to file form 32 for new company also.

This time please print your form 32.

Step 1- Apply for DIN in E-Form called DIN-1 in MCA-21 Portal. You will get a Provisional DIN. System will generate a challan. Make payment against this chalan in an authorized bank for this application. Els, you can make credit card payment also. Step 2:- Take a printout of the DIN-1, and attach Address proof and Identity proof for the director. Get a self attested passport size photo attached in the form.

Yes dear Ekta you telling right but you need not pay rs.50/- for each document at the time of inspection through online just pay the fee rs.50/- one time then all the documents come into your my documents in your MCA user id then download the file and keep your record. If you want certified copy of you are specified file that time only you pay the fee Rs.25/-(One page)+Stamp Paper Rs.20/- Value (Some States stopped selling physical stamp paper that time you get the eStamp paper from some central govt authorised companies).Finally you submit the fee receipt with (e)Stamp paper at RoC then they will give the certified copy of files.

Note : 1. Rs.50/- one time inspection fee.

2.Rs.25/-+(e)Stamp Paper.(Rs.20/-

3.Rs.50/- for Incorporation Certificate(Stamp Paper not necessary for CoI)

Eg:You want Form 18?

Form 18-Front and Back (Rs.25X2=Rs.50+One Stamp Paper(Rs.20/-))

If you have DIN No. then You fill Form-DIN-2 (for Intimation of your DIN No to Company in which you are already Director), The Compnay will again fill Form-DIN-3 and upload with MCA Portal. For filling DIN-2 you must have the date of appointment, otherwise you have to download Form-32 from the MCA Portal as EKTA suggested. (for obtaining Date of Appointment.)
