• DIN Deactivated: Cannot act as director. Cannot sign any MCA forms. Immediate, automatic.
• Rs 5,000 Penalty: Payable for reactivation. Non-refundable.
• Company Filings Blocked: AOC-4, MGT-7, DIR-12 — any form requiring that director's DSC is blocked. Late fees Rs 100/day accumulate.
• Cascading: Director on 3 companies = ALL 3 blocked. Example: Rs 5,000 (reactivation) + Rs 36,000 (60 days late × 2 forms × 3 companies) = Rs 41,000 from one missed filing.
• Regulatory Scrutiny: Repeated non-filing attracts MCA attention. Company flagged.
