A Class 3 Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) is the most secure type of DSC available, thanks to its rigorous verification process. To obtain a Class 3 DSC, the applicant must undergo a high level of identity verification, including physical verification through video recording or biometric details available online on the UIDAI database. Due to its high security level, a Class 3 DSC is commonly used for signing several applications, including company incorporation, obtaining DIN, ROC compliances, income tax returns, GST returns, IEC registration, EPF registration, and e-tendering. If you need to secure your digital identity and ensure the authenticity of your online transactions, a Class 3 DSC is an excellent choice.

Documentation is an essential part of the Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) application process. The application is incomplete without proper documents attached to it, and even if all the documents are attached, they might get rejected if they are not in the proper format or are not up to date. Therefore, we strongly recommend that you ensure you possess all the necessary documents beforehand to prevent any hindrance in the later stages of filing. A complete list of all the required documents is available on ourwebsite.
Once you have ensured that you possess all the necessary documents, the first step in the application process for a Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) is to create an account on the official website of the Certifying Agency (CA). With Setindiabiz’s expert guidance, you can easily create an account and proceed with the application process without any hassle.
After creating an account on the Certifying Agency’s (CA) website, you can proceed to fill out the application generated by the CA based on the order you’ve placed. The application can be filled using either the PAN or the Aadhaar of the applicant. Basic details such as name, address, date of birth, PAN number, Aadhaar number, mobile number, and email address must be filled in. Remember that at least one of the Aadhaar number or the PAN number must be mandatorily filled. With Setindiabiz’s expert guidance, you can easily fill out the application without any errors and move on to the next step.
In the previous step, we discussed the two modes of filing a DSC application, via Aadhaar or PAN. The primary difference between the two lies in the documents uploaded. For Aadhaar-based applications, only the Aadhaar XML file downloaded from the UIDAI portal needs to be uploaded. However, for PAN-based applications, a colored passport size photograph of the applicant, along with a scanned copy of the PAN card and address proof, duly attested by the attesting officer, will be required. Once all the necessary documents are uploaded, the application is complete, and the applicant can move on to the necessary verifications. With Setindiabiz’s expert guidance, you can easily upload the documents without any errors and proceed with the application process smoothly.
The identity of the applicant is verified using OTPs sent to the e-mail address and mobile number mentioned in the application. These must be the same as the e-mail addresses and mobile numbers linked with the Aadhaar or PAN as the case may be. Upon receiving the OTPs, the applicant must submit them one by one to authenticate his identity.
Once the email and the mobile number of the applicant is verified, a video link is sent to the applicant’s email address. The applicant will have to open this link and record a live video affirming his name and type of DSC applied for. After being recorded, the video will have to be submitted to the concerned authorities. It will be used to verify the identity of the applicant with utmost accuracy.
After submitting the DSC application with all the necessary documents and payment of the prescribed application fees, the Certifying Agency will issue the DSC to the applicant. The DSC certificate will contain essential details such as the type of user (individual / organizational), class of DSC, certificate type (sign/encrypted/both), and the validity period, which can be for 1, 2, or 3 years for a Class 3 DSC. With Setindiabiz’s professional assistance, you can obtain your Class 3 DSC promptly and at highly affordable rates. Protect your digital identity and streamline your business processes with Setindiabiz’s Class 3 DSC services.
