NIC 642100 is the final six-digit endpoint for Activities of holding companies, i.e. units that hold the assets (owning controlling levels of equity) of one or more subsidiaries and whose only purpose is owning subsidiaries. The holding companies in this class do not provide any other service to the enterprises in which the equity is held, i.e. they do not administer or manage other units.. It should be selected only when the enterprise's primary business activity matches this title more closely than nearby sibling codes in the same parent category.
Choose 642100 only when operations, invoices and revenue narrative align with Activities of holding companies, i.e. units that hold the assets (owning controlling levels of equity) of one or more subsidiaries and whose only purpose is owning subsidiaries. The holding companies in this class do not provide any other service to the enterprises in which the equity is held, i.e. they do not administer or manage other units.. If the activity also includes nearby sibling codes in the same parent category, compare those pages before filing.
Use the code that matches the service actually provided. Financial intermediation, insurance, real estate, legal, accounting, consulting, engineering, advertising and R&D are separated into different professional service families.
Usually the firm's own service determines the NIC code, not the client's industry. For example, a consultant serving manufacturers is still a consulting or professional service business if advice is the revenue activity.
Check the parent hierarchy, compare nearby sibling codes in the same parent category, 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.
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.
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 642100 should be selected only when the official title matches the main revenue-generating activity. If the business also trades, transports, processes, installs or supports the same product or service, compare nearby NIC pages before filing. This reduces the risk of choosing a code that describes the product being handled rather than the activity your enterprise actually performs.
