It contains details of all types of companies and LLP (Limited Liability Partnership). The Indian Government provides all the information to the public on the MCA website and is accessible to an individual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2006, the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/enterslice.com\/company-registration\">company registration<\/a><\/strong> process was digitalized in India by the Government of India, with the introduction of the MCA21 project. The Company Registration Number can be checked on the MCA website (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mca.gov.in\">www.mca.gov.in<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the MCA website, one can check, CRN, date of incorporation, type of company, directors of the company, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the Company Registration Number?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>CRN stands for Company Registration Number; it is a 6- digit unique number allotted to the companies at the time of its incorporation by the RoC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The biggest problem that comes our way is that people often confuse between the CRN and the CIN. However, both the CRN and the CIN are utterly different from each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let us first understand the difference between these.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the difference between CRN and CIN?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>CRN and CIN are used to check the company&rsquo;s details, yet are quite different from each other. <em>The significant differences between CRN and CIN are:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>CRN is a 6- digit number, whereas CIN is a 21- digit number<\/li><li>CRN has numbers only, whereas CIN is alphanumeric.<\/li><li>The CRN can only be checked on the MCA portal, whereas, Corporate Identification Number (CIN) is present in the Certificate of Incorporation sent by RoC.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the procedure to validate the Company Registration Number?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One can validate the CRN with three simple steps on the MCA portal. Firstly, by logging into the MCA website, you can check its company type, name of the directors, date of incorporation, etc. Apart from these, balance sheets and other company documents, including annual returns, are also available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Steps to check Company Registration Number<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the company has filled the SPICe form for the registration process and received the Incorporation Certificate, the Company Registration Number can be checked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The steps for checking company registration number:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"842\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/enterslice.com\/learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Steps-to-check-Company-Registration-Number.png\" alt=\"Steps to check Company Registration Number\" class=\"wp-image-47321\" srcset=\"https:\/\/enterslice.com\/learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Steps-to-check-Company-Registration-Number.png 842w, https:\/\/enterslice.com\/learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Steps-to-check-Company-Registration-Number-281x300.png 281w, https:\/\/enterslice.com\/learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Steps-to-check-Company-Registration-Number-768x821.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 842px) 100vw, 842px\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1: Visit the MCA portal<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Visit the MCA website at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mca.gov.in\">www.mca.gov.in<\/a> and click on the MCA services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2: Click on view Company\/LLP Master Data<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3: Enter your Company&rsquo;s CIN<\/strong> Click on the option &lsquo;View Company\/LLP Master Data&rsquo; on the MCA services page.
