Dear Taxpayer,

The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) has introduced a key amendment via the Companies (Registration Offices and Fees) Amendment Rules, 2026, impacting the fee structure for DIR-3 KYC Web. TaxWise Quick Summary of the same:

1. Timely Filing: No fee if filed within the due date prescribed under Rule 12A.

2. Delayed Filing / DIN Reactivation: A fee of ₹5,000 will now be applicable for filings made after the due date or for reactivation of a deactivated DIN.

3. Subsequent Updates: Any further filing for changes (as per Rule 12A(2)) will attract a fee of ₹500 per filing.

4. Effective Date: Applicable immediately from April 21, 2026.

*PAN Application Framework Tightens from April 1, 2026 - Most Taxpayers Not Ready*

The era of "Instant PAN" using only Aadhaar is coming to an end. Starting next week, the process becomes stricter and more document-heavy.

Here is everything you need to know.

*1) End of Single Document Process:*

Until March 31, 2026, you could get a PAN using just your Aadhaar card.

From April 1, Aadhaar alone will NOT be enough. You will now be mandatorily required to submit additional supporting documents, specifically for Date of Birth (DOB) proof.

*2) Introduction of New Forms:*

The familiar Form 49A (for Indians) and Form 49AA (for NRIs) are being retired.

They are being replaced by:
• Form 93: For Indian citizens and companies
• Form 95: For non-residents and foreign entities

Using old forms after April 1 will lead to instant rejection.

*3) Mandatory Name Matching (No Flexibility):*

Earlier, you could have "S.K. Jain" on PAN and "Sandeep Kumar Jain" on Aadhaar. No more.

Under the new rules, the name on your PAN application must match your Aadhaar record character-for-character. If there is even a single spelling difference, the system will block the application.

*4) Valid DOB Proof Requirements:*

Since Aadhaar is no longer sufficient for DOB, you must keep one of these ready:
• Birth Certificate
• Matriculation (Class 10) Certificate
• Passport
• Voter ID
• Driving License
• Magistrate-signed Affidavit

*5) Revised PAN Quoting Thresholds:*

It’s not all bad news! The 2026 rules also increased PAN quoting limits:
• Cash Transactions: Limit raised to ₹10 lakh per year (from ₹50,000 per day)
• Property Transactions: Required above ₹20 lakh (earlier ₹10 lakh)
Vehicles: Required above ₹5 lakh
• Hotels/Events: Required above ₹1 lakh

*6) Action Plan for Taxpayers:*

1. Check if your Aadhaar name matches your existing bank and ID documents

2. If applying for a new PAN, do it BEFORE March 31 to save on extra paperwork

3. Ensure you have your Birth Certificate or Class 10 marksheet ready for April 1

Can a Director Be Appointed Without DIN? (The Hidden Non-Compliance Many Miss)

A shocking number of companies still appoint directors first and apply for DIN later.

But under Section 152 & Rule 9, this practice is completely illegal.
A person cannot be appointed as a director unless:
✔ He already has a valid DIN
✔ Consent in Form DIR-2 is obtained
✔ He is eligible and not disqualified
✔ His name appears in the Board resolution

Appointment without DIN =
❌ Invalid director appointment
❌ Every act done becomes questionably void
❌ Penalties for the company + officers
❌ Issues in audit, filings, banking authority updates

Yet many private companies still pass “backdated” resolutions — which is a red flag.

💡 Governance Reminder:
DIN is not a formality — it is the legal identity of a director.

*Trade Marks Registry* is set to *abandon* about 165,000 if no response is filed by 07th March, 2023.

In Trade Marks Journal No. 2090 dated 06th February, 2023, the Controller General of Patent, Design and Trade Marks has issued list of about 165,000 marks which are unattended by the Applicant after objection or oppositions are raised. Find out if your trademark could be in the list:

For more than 90,000 trademarks, reply to examination reply has not been filed by the Applicants. These marks will be marked "abandoned" under Section 32 within 30 days of publication.

For more than 75,000 trademarks, opposition from third parties are received, however counter statements are not filed by the Applicants. These marks will be marked "deemed to be abandoned" under Section 21(2) within 30 days of publication.

*Impact:*
If the applied trademarks are marked "Abandoned" or "Deemed to be abandoned", the trademark applicant or owner will lose the right to use TM mark besides the trademark and the projection associated. Then after, the applicant will have to file new application.

*How to save your mark:*
If the applicants have already filed, the "Reply to Examination Report" or "Counter Statement" filed should be emailed along with supporting documents and payment receipt on specified email ids.

Notices are some 3000+ pages each, hence I am unable to attach pdfs here. You can download notices issued for your benefit from https://lnkd.in/dAHy76Df
