Digital Signature Certificate and Ministry of Corporate Affairs
Any organization or firm can apply for a Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) for transactions involving the Ministry of Corporate Affairs. However, business houses that exceed revenues of over INR 60 lakhs have to mandatorily use a Digital Signature Certificate while filing returns. Under the provisions of law, a Digital Signature is considered as a legally admissible instrument.
There are various types of Digital Signature Certificates that cater to specific needs. While eFiling on the Ministry of Corporate Affairs portal, a Digital Signature Certificate of Class 3 category is required.
A Class 3 Digital Signature Certificate is a higher level as it is issued only after the registrant?s identity verification has been done by a Registration Authority.
