Every appointed director on an Indian company receives a Director Identification Number (DIN). It is the anchor MCA uses to link a person to companies, filings, and compliance history.

Compliance teams often know a director's DIN from an MCA extract but still need the linked PAN for tax reporting, TDS, or bank KYC. Manual cross-checks are slow and error-prone.

Why PAN by DIN matters

• Vendor onboarding — confirm the person behind a signing director.
• Litigation & due diligence — match director identity across registries.
• Internal audits — reconcile board lists with tax identifiers.

Credonex offers an instant PAN by DIN lookup so you can move from a DIN on a company page to a verified PAN in one step—pay per use, no subscription.
