What is a Digital Signature Certificate (DSC)?
A Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) is an electronic signature issued by a licensed Certifying Authority in India. It verifies the identity of the certificate holder and enables secure online signing of electronic documents.
A DSC is legally recognized under the Information Technology Act, 2000 and is widely used for government filings, statutory compliance, business registrations, tax filings, procurement portals, and secure digital transactions.
Instead of physically signing documents, a DSC allows you to sign them electronically in a secure and authenticated manner.
