Tried to add this ActiveX control to a Dialog of another basic mfc application using mouse right click and "Insert ActiveX control". It gives two errors on trot as:

1. The ActiveX control cannot be instantiated.
2. "Times Control" is not a valid ActiveX control. It is missing a required interface.

What appears confusing to me is on looking at all registered Automation objects, project which was compiling into a .dll file is present as an .OCX

DllGetClassObject function gets executed two times, rclsid remains same in both execution. Additionally:
In first execution riid = IID_IClassFactory2, ppv = 0x005be5bc, hresult = -2147467262 ;
In second execution: riid = IID_IClassFactory, ppv = 0x005bf2ec, hresult = 0

I tried registering the dll and ocx at the command line with regsvr32 in admin mode. but still giving me same error. I will look at GUID as suggested. Dll doesn't look like missing from project. Thank you for these clues, appreciate that.
