What is a Digital Signature Certificate (DSC)?
A Digital Signature Certificate is a secure digital key issued by a Certifying Authority to authenticate the identity of the certificate holder. It is used for electronically signing documents, ensuring confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity of data exchanged over digital platforms.
In India, DSCs are governed by the Information Technology Act and are legally accepted for various government portals and digital applications including:
- Income Tax Return (ITR) e-filing
- Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) filings
- GST return filing and registration
- EPFO filings
- Director KYC and company incorporation
- e-Tender submissions
Types of DSC for Individuals
There are two main types of DSCs typically issued for individuals:
- Class 3 DSC: For e-Tendering, e-Auction, Trademark/Patent filing, and high-value official digital signatures.
- Class 2 DSC (Discontinued as of 2021): Earlier used for ITR and MCA, now replaced by Class 3 as per new rules.
