    Solution

    A director needs to have a single Director Identification number (DIN). Every individual intending to be appointed asĀ Ā directorĀ of a company shall makeĀ anĀ applicationĀ for allotment ofĀ DIN to theĀ Central Government. Once allotted, this will be used as the DIN for every directorship held by that individual. Section 155 of the Companies Act, 2013, prohibits an individual, who hasĀ already been allottedĀ a DINĀ under section 154, to apply for, obtain or possess another DIN.
