Ministry of Corporate Affairs In the year 2018, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs had taken a major step by coming out with Form DIR-3 KYC, a KYC initiative for directors, in order to ascertain identities as a part of their efforts to uncover the shell companies existing to facilitate the illicit flow of funds. In furtherance to identifying such unscrupulous entities, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs has made an attempt to collect the data pertaining to Companies which are registered under the Companies Act, 2013 or Companies Act, 1956. Propagating the campaign of Digital India inaugurated by our Hon’ble Prime Minister, Mr. NarendraModi, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs vide Notification Number G.S.R. 144(3) dated February 21, 2019, has amended the existing Companies (Incorporation) Rules, 2014 by inserting Rule 25A which talks about Geo-tagging and Verification for Companies.
