For NRIs living abroad, being physically present in India for identity verification at all times is not feasible. To bridge this gap, Digital Signature Certificates (DSCs) come into play. NRIs can utilize DSCs for various online transactions, including Income Tax E-filing, signing web forms, e-tendering documents, and company or LLP Incorporation. The primary advantage lies in the heightened security it offers for online dealings, ensuring the utmost privacy and protection of shared information through digital certificates.
NRIs, particularly, benefit from digital signature certificates in various aspects, notably in the realm of income tax e-filing, where the need for secure and verified transactions is paramount.
