OpenRegistry tool accesses India's corporate registry data

OpenRegistry has developed a tool to access India's Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) registry data, which is available through data.gov.in. This tool allows users to query company information, including Corporate Identification Numbers (CIN), company status, incorporation dates, and registered office addresses. It also provides access to director data, featuring Director Identification Numbers (DIN) for unambiguous identification of individuals across multiple companies. However, the dataset has limitations, notably in fully capturing beneficial ownership and historical data, and direct document access can be restricted. AI

IMPACT Provides enhanced access to corporate data for investigative and analytical purposes.

RANK_REASON The item describes a tool for accessing existing public data, not a new model release, research, or significant industry event.
