Common Questions About NIC 3512

Which businesses fall under NIC 3512?

Start here when the business belongs to electric power generation activities from renewable sources and then compare child entries such as 351201 Electric power generation using hydropower, 351202 Electric power generation using solar energy, 351203 Electric power generation using wind, 351204 Electric power generation using green hydrogen and 2 more.

Is NIC 3512 a final filing code?

No. This is a hierarchy page. Continue to the six-digit Sub-class before using a code in registration or compliance records.

How do I verify that NIC 3512 is correct before filing?

Check the parent hierarchy, compare 3511 Electric power generation activities from non-renewable sources, 3513 Electric power transmission and distribution activities, and confirm that the official title matches the main revenue activity. For regulated or filing-critical decisions, verify the source row in the MoSPI dataset.

What happens if I use the wrong NIC code in Udyam or MCA registration?

A wrong code can cause mismatched business descriptions, follow-up questions or later compliance cleanup. It is better to compare nearby codes before filing than to correct a weak classification later.

Is there a legacy NIC 2008 equivalent for NIC 3512?

Use the legacy converter only as a migration aid. Old NIC 2008 matches can suggest where to look, but NIC 2025 should remain the primary reference for new code selection.

NIC 2026 guidance

How to move from Class 3512 to the right Sub-class

NIC 3512 is an intermediate hierarchy page, not usually the final code used in a filing. Use it to compare child entries, read the nearby-code context and move toward the most precise six-digit Sub-class. If the child list contains several similar activities, open each candidate page and compare the wording against the business's real operating model.
