Incorporation
We prepare and file your DIR-12 to add a new director to your company, with the consent and disclosure paperwork the ROC requires, filed within the 30-day window.
Adding a director means more than a board resolution. DIR-12 has to be filed with the ROC within 30 days, backed by the incoming director's consent and disqualification disclosure. We prepare and file the whole bundle for you.
DIR-12 is the MCA filing that formally records a new director's appointment (or a change in an existing director's designation) with the Registrar of Companies.
It has to be backed by the incoming director's signed consent to act (DIR-2) and a disqualification disclosure (DIR-8), alongside a board resolution. Miss any one of these and the filing can bounce back.
Filed within the 30-day window from the date of appointment.
The same consent form used at incorporation, drafted for signature by the incoming director.
A statutory disclosure confirming the incoming director isn't disqualified from holding the position.
Drafted for your board to pass, authorizing the appointment.
Any time your company brings on a new director, or an existing director's role changes (resignation, designation change), it has to be recorded with the ROC via DIR-12. This is separate from your original SPICe+ incorporation filing: DIN allotted for up to 3 first directors during incorporation doesn't cover directors added afterward.
DIR-12 must be filed within 30 days of the change. Late filing risks additional fees, so we track this as part of the process rather than leaving it to you to remember.

Common mistakes founders make
30 days from the date of the change. We track this deadline as part of handling your filing.
Yes, either an existing DIN or a fresh DIN application, which we handle as part of this service if needed.
A DIR-2 consent to act and a DIR-8 disqualification disclosure, alongside their PAN, Aadhaar, photograph, and residential address proof.
DIR-12 also records designation changes and cessations, though the specific supporting documents differ from a fresh appointment. Talk to us about your specific situation.
