🇮🇳 MCA India Company Registry — CIN Lookup & Company Master Data

Look up any Indian company by name, ROC office or state and get its official Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) master-data record — CIN, incorporation date, authorized & paid-up capital, company class, listing status, registered office and NIC industrial classification. Sourced from India's Open Government Data (OGD) platform (data.gov.in), the same public "RoC-wise Company Master Data" resource that mirrors MCA filings — ~3.67 million companies, refreshed at source.

Built for B2B prospecting, KYC / due-diligence, supplier and counterparty verification, market intelligence, and AI agents that need structured Indian company records without scraping a portal.

Factual public records — assembled for research and monitoring. Not affiliated with or endorsed by the MCA or data.gov.in.

Tip — supply your own free API key. Pass apiKey (get one free in ~1 minute at data.gov.in: register → Profile → API key). Without it the actor falls back to a shared, heavily rate-limited public key, and a throttled run fails loud with HTTP 429 rather than silently returning partial data.

💵 Pricing

Pay-per-result, no subscription:

Event	Price
Actor start	$0.01
Company record	$0.05 each
Watch-check (per scheduled watch run)	$0.05

Worked example: a 50-company pull = 1 start ($0.01) + 50 records × $0.05 = $2.51. A daily watch run that finds 3 newly-registered companies in your slice = $0.05 watch-check + 3 × $0.05 = $0.20. A blocked/throttled source fails loud and charges nothing — you never pay for an empty "success".

⏰ Watch mode — new-company alerts

Turn on watchMode and put the actor on a schedule. The first run seeds a baseline and emits nothing; every later run emits only companies that are new in your filtered slice since the last run (keyed on CIN). Perfect for a standing "new company registrations in Karnataka" or "new companies matching my supplier name pattern" feed into Slack, a sheet, or an agent.

{ "state": "KARNATAKA", "companyName": "LOGISTICS", "watchMode": true, "watchLabel": "ka-logistics" }

🤖 Use with AI agents

Returns clean JSON, so an agent can call it directly. Example task: "Look up the MCA record for every supplier on this list and flag any whose company_status is not Active." Works with MCP tool-calling and agentic (x402) payment flows — agents can pay in USDC, no account setup.

❓ FAQ

Where does the data come from? India's Open Government Data platform (data.gov.in), resource "RoC-wise Company Master Data" — a public mirror of MCA company master data covering ~3.67M companies.

How fresh is it? As fresh as the OGD resource, which is refreshed periodically at source (last dataset update 2026-06-11). scraped_at records your retrieval time.

Do I need an API key? No, but it's strongly recommended. Without one you share a heavily rate-limited public key; supply your own free apiKey from data.gov.in for a private quota and no 429 failures.

Does a blocked source bill me? No. If OGD is unreachable or the shared key is throttled past its retries, the run fails loud and charges nothing — you never pay for an empty "success".

How do I search? Filter by companyName (substring), rocCode (registrar office), and/or state (matched against the registered address). Leave all blank to page the full resource.

Is this legal? Yes — this is factual public-record data published by the Government of India under its open data licence. Provided as-is for research, monitoring and due-diligence.
