Digital Signature Certificate (DSC)

A Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) is the digital equivalent of a physical signature, used to authenticate and sign documents electronically. It ensures secure communication and legal recognition in online filings and registrations.

There are 3 types of DSCs (Class 1, Class 2, Class 3), with Class 3 DSC being the most widely used for business and government filings. It contains details like your name, PAN, email, and issuing authority, and is stored on a USB token for secure usage.

At Startup Bharat, we provide end-to-end DSC services:

  • New DSC application (individuals, companies, directors)

  • Renewal of expired DSCs

  • DSC download & token configuration

  • Aadhaar/PAN-based verification

  • Assistance with MCA, GST, PF, and e-tender integrations

Certification Benefits

Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) Registration

  • A legal digital identity to sign and submit documents securely online
  • Mandatory for company directors, professionals, and government bidders
  • Issued under the IT Act, 2000 and recognized by all government portals

Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) Certification is essential for any individual or business that wants to operate in a legally compliant and secure digital environment. Whether you’re registering a company, filing GST or income tax returns, applying for tenders, or using portals like MCA, GeM, or ICEGate — a DSC acts as your official digital signature.

DSC ensures authenticity, integrity, and non-repudiation of electronic documents. It eliminates paperwork, speeds up approval processes, and is legally equivalent to a handwritten signature.
