Common Questions About NIC 562

Which businesses fall under NIC 562?

Start here when the business belongs to event catering and other food service activities and then compare child entries such as undefined undefined, undefined undefined.

Is NIC 562 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 562 is correct before filing?

Check the parent hierarchy, compare 561 Restaurants and mobile food service activities, 563 Beverage serving activities, 564 Intermediation service activities for food and beverage services, 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 562?

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 Group 562 helps narrow your NIC search

NIC 562 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.
