## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## India MCA Company Master Data — Bulk Registry (via OGD)

Pull India's full Ministry of Corporate Affairs company master data at registry scale — 3.6M+ companies — straight from the data.gov.in Open Government Data feed, with no Akamai wall and no captcha. Screen the entire RoC universe by state, company-name substring and minimum authorized capital to surface targets, flag struck-off and dormant entities, and build due-diligence shortlists. Returns CIN, legal name, registration date, status, ROC, registered state, authorized/paid-up capital, company class and listing status.

> **Scope note — master data only.** Director, DIN, charges and AGM data are **not** published on the OGD master-data feed and are returned as null; this actor does not deliver director filings. For enriched director profiles on marquee names, use our curated India MCA Listed-Company Lookup actor.

---

### What it screens

- **3.6M+ companies** — the full data.gov.in RoC-wise Company Master Data resource
- **By state** — filter the whole registry to one CompanyStateCode
- **By name** — company-name substring match, server-side
- **By capital** — minimum authorized-capital screen
- **By status** — surface ACTIVE, STRIKE-OFF and DORMANT entities

### Fields returned

CIN, legal name, registration date, status, ROC / registrar office, registered state, authorized and paid-up capital (INR), company class and listed/unlisted flag. Director, DIN, charges and AGM fields return null (not in OGD master data).

### Use cases

- **PE/VC diligence** screening thousands of targets by state + capital
- **Compliance teams** bulk-flagging struck-off / dormant counterparties
- **US / foreign counsel** building India KYC shortlists
- **Market sizing** by registered-office state
- **Shell-company / risk screening** across the full registry

### Sample input

```json
{
  "state_filter": "Maharashtra",
  "company_name_filter": "",
  "min_authorized_capital": 10000000,
  "dataset_type": "company_master",
  "max_records": 200
}
````

### Sample output

```json
{
  "source_dataset": "ogd_company_master",
  "CIN": "U72900MH2015PTC...",
  "company_name": "EXAMPLE TECH PRIVATE LIMITED",
  "registration_date": "2015-03-12",
  "status": "ACTIVE",
  "registrar_office": "RoC-Mumbai",
  "state": "maharashtra",
  "authorized_capital_inr": 10000000.0,
  "paid_up_capital_inr": 2500000.0,
  "company_class": "Private",
  "listed_or_unlisted": "Unlisted",
  "directors_count": null,
  "last_AGM_date": null,
  "ogd_coverage_note": "OGD bulk master data does not include directors/AGM"
}
```

### FAQ

**How many companies does this cover?**
The OGD RoC-wise master-data resource holds 3.6M+ registered Indian companies.

**Does it include director or DIN data?**
No — OGD master data does not publish directors, DIN, charges or AGM dates; those fields return null. Use the curated India MCA Listed-Company Lookup actor for marquee-company directors.

**Can I find struck-off / dormant companies?**
Yes — filter on status to surface STRIKE-OFF and DORMANT entities.

**Can I screen by state and capital?**
Yes — `state_filter` + `min_authorized_capital` run over the whole registry.

**Do I need my own data.gov.in key?**
No — a shared, rate-limited key is built in; supply your own for higher throughput.

# Actor input Schema

## `state_filter` (type: `string`):

Filter by Indian state (matches CompanyStateCode field on the OGD master-data resource — case-insensitive). Examples: 'Maharashtra', 'Karnataka', 'Delhi', 'Tamil Nadu'. Leave blank to scan across all states.

## `company_name_filter` (type: `string`):

Substring to match against CompanyName (uppercase, server-side filter). Leave blank to skip name filtering and scan the whole state.

## `min_authorized_capital` (type: `integer`):

Drop companies whose AuthorizedCapital is below this value (in INR rupees). Useful for screening out shell entities. Set to 0 to keep everything.

## `dataset_type` (type: `string`):

Which MCA-related OGD dataset to pull. 'company\_master' is the canonical RoC-wise master-data resource (3.6M+ companies, all fields populated). 'charges' and 'directors' are NOT currently published on OGD — selecting them returns a coverage-limitation placeholder explaining the workaround. 'any' defaults to company\_master.

## `max_records` (type: `integer`):

Maximum company records to push to the dataset. Range 1-5000.

## `api_key` (type: `string`):

Personal data.gov.in API key. Leave blank to use the shared sample key (free, rate-limited at ~10 req/min). Get your own at https://data.gov.in/user/login for unlimited throughput.

{
  "state_filter": "Maharashtra",
