Digital Signature for Income Tax E-filing
According to a mandate by Government of India, every citizen who needs to file Income Tax Forms, should do so by availing a Digital Signature Certificate. While filing the Income Tax Returns, the DSC must necessarily be put on record by being registered on an e-Filing Application. A Digital Signature Certificate makes it much more faster and easier to digitally file for income tax returns.
What role does DSC play in filing tax-returns?
A digital signature certificate serves to authenticate documents digitally. This process is similar to how a pen authenticates documents on paper, by using a person’s signature. No body can forge signatures made using DSC and it certifies that the person named in the document, did indeed agree to what is written on it.
