A company’s “Corporate Identification Number” is referred to as its CIN. A company’s unique identity is defined by this 21-digit alphanumerical identifier. Private limited companies, government-owned companies, state government companies, and other business kinds registered in India are all granted unique CINs by the ROC (Registrar of Companies) of each state in the country under the MCA (Ministry of Corporate Affairs).
For what reason is the CIN number important?
According to the Companies Act of 2013, section 12(3), “Every company shall get its name, address of its registered office, and the Corporate Identity Number along with telephone number, fax number, if any, e-mail and website addresses, if any, printed in all its business letters, billheads, letter papers and in all its notices and other official publications” A company’s CIN number is used to track all of its activities after it has been registered with the Registrar of Companies (ROC). The specific CIN number is also utilized to locate the company’s MCA-registered data.
