Overview
About Digital Signature Certificate (DSC)
A Digital Signature Certificate is the digital identity card that authenticates a signer’s identity, enabling secure and legally valid digital signing of documents online.
How DSC Works & Legal Standing in India
A DSC uses cryptographic technology — via a pair of keys (private and public) — to ensure the signer’s identity, verify document integrity, and prevent unauthorized tampering. Under the Information Technology Act, 2000, digitally signed documents bearing a DSC are legally equivalent to those signed by hand, making them admissible in law. Only DSCs issued by authorized Controller of Certifying Authorities (CCA)-licensed Certifying Authorities are recognised. Why DSC Matters for Businesses
