Indian Oil Corporation Limited has updated its Corporate Identification Number (CIN) from L23201MH1959GO1011388 to L19201MH1959GOI011388. This change is a consequence of the company’s principal industrial activity being reclassified under the National Industrial Classification (NIC) Code 2008, moving from 23201 (erstwhile NIC 1998) to 19201. The amendment follows earlier intimations regarding changes to the Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association.
Corporate Identification Number (CIN) Update
Indian Oil Corporation Limited has officially intimated a change in its Corporate Identification Number (CIN). The company’s CIN has been updated from L23201MH1959GOI011388 to L19201MH1959GOI011388. This adjustment follows a previous intimation on 1st September 2026 concerning amendments to the object clause of the Memorandum of Association (MoA) and the adoption of a new set of Articles of Association (AoA).
Reason for CIN Change

Under the new National Industrial Classification (NIC) Code 2008, the activity has been re-categorized from 23201 (as per the erstwhile NIC 1998) to 19201. This change has been formally effected by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs upon approval of the MGT-14 filing submitted by the company.

The company continues its operations in refining, transportation, marketing, and distribution of petroleum products, alongside other allied energy businesses. This update ensures the company’s classification aligns with the latest industrial coding standards.
