Overview
What is Director Change (Details / Designation)?
A director change covers updates to a director's particulars or role — for example, a change in designation (e.g. director to managing director), or a change in the director's personal details on their DIN (address, name).
Changes to the directorship/role are filed in DIR-12; changes to the director's DIN particulars are filed in DIR-6. Filing correctly keeps the MCA record accurate, which matters for every other filing.
We identify the right form and file the change.
