When is it the right choice?

Corporate KYC: identify who runs a business customer or counterparty

Good for

  • Corporate KYC: identify who runs a business customer or counterparty
  • Signatory checks before a contract or loan
  • Group mapping: follow a DIN to the other companies the person directs
  • Adverse screening: run each director through defaulter and court-case lookups

Limits

  • It lists directors and officers from public records; it does not return Digital Signature Certificate registration status
  • Names of people can be shared by several individuals; use the DIN, not the name, to follow a person
  • Contact details of directors are not returned

Frequently asked questions

How do I get the directors of a company by API?

Call the directors endpoint with the CIN or LLPIN. You get each director's DIN, designation, appointment and cessation dates and status.

How much does a director details API cost?

IndiaCos charges INR 0.40 per successful call from a prepaid wallet, and new accounts get INR 50 free credit, about 125 calls. Errors such as 404 not found are not billed. QorpIQ publishes INR 3 per call; Surepass and Attestr do not publish a price.

Can I see all companies of one director?

Yes. Call the director endpoint with the DIN to list directorships, or the person endpoint to see every role under a name.

Can an AI agent run this check?

Yes. IndiaCos runs an MCP server at https://indiacos.com/mcp, so assistants such as Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor can call the same lookups with an API key. Each successful call is billed at INR 0.40 like any other API call.
