1. 📌 Introduction
A Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) is an electronic form of a signature that authenticates the identity of the sender or signee of a document. In 2025, it has become mandatory for individuals and organizations to use DSCs for filing taxes, company registrations, e-tenders, and import-export applications.
Backed by India’s Information Technology Act, DSCs ensure secure, tamper-proof transactions in the digital ecosystem.
Whether you are a business owner, CA, lawyer, or service provider — DSC registration is essential.
2. 🗂️ Types of Licenses Offered
India issues three classes of Digital Signatures, but as per latest guidelines (2021 onwards), only Class 3 DSCs are available.
DSC Type | Usage Area | Signature Type |
Class 3 – Signing Only | Income Tax, MCA, DGFT, GST | Authentication only |

⚠️ Class 2 DSCs have been discontinued as per CCA (Controller of Certifying Authorities) orders.
