The UDIN Directorate of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) has announced a one-time relaxation for members to generate Unique Document Identification Numbers (UDINs) for documents and reports where UDINs could not be generated earlier due to the transition to the new UDIN portal.
This relaxation applies to documents/reports signed during the period 22nd October 2025 to 22nd November 2025. Members can now generate the pending UDINs within a special window from 1st April 2026 to 30th April 2026 being both days inclusive.
The initiative aims to provide relief to members who were unable to comply with UDIN requirements during the system transition phase, ensuring proper documentation and regulatory compliance.
It is important to note that for all documents/reports outside the specified period, the existing requirement remains unchanged; UDIN must be generated within 60 days from the date of signing.
