KYC API: Upcoming changes to our connection to the Indian register

Posted 2025-10-23 | Updated 2025-10-30

Summary

We would like to inform you that we have scheduled the implementation of the following changes to our connection with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) on KYC API, available with the 26th of November 2025’s release.

Data improvements

We are pleased to share details of the upcoming updates, which include the introduction of a new super dataset, the addition of new fields in the refresh dataset, enhancements to existing fields and increased stability of the connection with the registry.

More specifically, the new India super dataset will enable you to access a complete company profile, including core registration details, capital and listing information, and most importantly officers data.

Super dataset

The super dataset available in KYC API v2 contains the following fields.

New fields

content.status
content.providedStatus
content.address
content.legalForm
content.additionalData.otherIdentifiers.identifierName
content.additionalData.otherIdentifiers.identifierValue
content.additionalData.contactInformation.email
content.additionalData.shares.shareCapitals
content.additionalData.legalEvents.incorporationDate
content.additionalData.legalEvents.registrationInstitution
content.additionalData.listed
content.associatedEntities.officers.name
content.associatedEntities.officers.role
content.associatedEntities.officers.providedRole
content.associatedEntities.officers.startDate
content.associatedEntities.officers.personalId
content.associatedEntities.officers.additionalAssociatedEntityData.signatoryRights
content.industryActivityCode
content.providerSpecificData.latestAccounts.lastMadeUpDate

Refresh dataset

As part of our ongoing improvements, we are introducing newly added and enhanced data fields that provide greater detail and accuracy. These enhancements are tailored to specific legal forms, meaning that availability and visibility may vary depending on the legal form of the entity. This ensures that the data presented aligns closely with what is provided by the registers. The first field applies to KYC API v1, whereas the second field is relevant to KYC API v2.

New fields

latestAccounts.lastMadeUpDate / content.providerSpecificData.latestAccounts.lastMadeUpDate
extraData.registrationDate / content.additionalData.legalEvents.registrationDate
extraData.listed / content.additionalData.listed
extraData.registrationInstitution / content.additionalData.legalEvents.registrationInstitution
extraData.shareCapital / content.additionalData.shares.shareCapitals
extraData.paidUpCapital / content.additionalData.shares.paidUpCapital

Enriched fields

address / content.address
legalForm / content.legalForm

Data refinement

Updates on officers

To enhance our data quality, uphold product integrity, and improve the user experience, we are implementing the following modifications to the officers displayed for the Indian register. We will introduce the fields officer.name, officer.role and officer.startDate in the super dataset on KYC API v2 and remove them from refresh. The following fields will be moved from refresh to super dataset KYC API v1 and KYC API v2:

people.officer.name / associatedEntities.officer.name
people.officer.role / associatedEntities.officer.providedRole
people.officer.startDate / associatedEntities.officer.startDate

Updates on shares’ authorized capital

To improve the user experience, we have renamed the shares.authorizedCapital field to shares.shareCapitals on KYC API v2 as this better reflects the data it represents. In line with this change, the content.providerSpecificData.authorizedCapital field will be excluded entirely from KYC API v2 to ensure consistency and clarity in data handling, since this information will be available under shares.shareCapitals.

Please find the before and after responses per dataset below. Kindly note that the example companies mentioned are fictitious, and the availability of data fields in the mock-up is subject to the specific requirements of the various legal forms.
