In earlier notification DIR-3 KYC needs to be file upto 31st August, 2018, and after the same has been extended to 15th September, 2018 but due to large no. of deactivations MCA come up new notification in which MCA allows the directors whose DIN got deactivated to reactivate their DIN by paying a fees of Rs. 500 till 5th October.

And if the Director wants to re-activate his DIN as he failed to file DIR-3 KYC on due date with nominal fees i.e., 5th October, 2018 then he shall do so upon payment of a specified fees only i.e., Rs 5,000 and needs to file the required form DIR-3 KYC within the stipulated time.
