A Company's CIN Can Be Easily Changed

The CIN of a company contains vital information about the company such as its listing status, industry code, state of registration, year of incorporation, type of company, and ROC code. While the CIN is generally permanent, it can change under certain circumstances such as a change in the company's registered office location, listing status, industry, or sector. For example, if a company changes the location of its registered office to a different state, its CIN will change to reflect the new state code.

Breaking the Corporate Identification


Number Code
Corporate Identification Number is not just another alphanumeric combination. It stores a lot of vital
information.

CIN Number is basically divided into 6 parts. Each part has some information about the Company:

1. The first digit signifies the listing status of the company. It will be L if the company is listed and
U if the company is unlisted.
2. Next five digits of the CIN represent the industry code. Depending on the kind of business the
company is doing, it is given a unique industry code.
3. The next two digits are called the state code. This signifies the state in which the company has its
registered office. This also helps us to locate the concerned ROC of the company.
For Example: If the company has been registered in Maharashtra, the Code would be “MH”. But
if the company changes the location of the registered office, CIN will change accordingly
4. Next four digits signify the year of incorporation of the company. Thus one can tell the year of
incorporation of the company just by looking at the CIN.
5. Next three digits signify the type of company. It can be any one of the
followings
6. – Public Limited Company (PLC)
– Private Limited Company (PTC)
– Government of India Company, Centre (GOI)
– One person Company (OPC)
– Company of State Government (SGC)
– Section 8 Company – Not for Profit (NPL)
7. Last six digits represent the special ROC code of the company. ROC gives a unique and specific
code to every company, which depends partly on the ROC the company has registered with and
partly on the kind of business allocated to the company.
