Introducing Zoho Sign's integration with eMudhra

Digital signatures are fast replacing the need to sign documents with pen and paper. Documents that are digitally signed are legally valid for most business documents around the world, including in India. Digital signing helps organizations to cut down costs, reduce turnaround time, and say goodbye to all the hassles of manual paperwork.

The pandemic has accelerated the adoption of digital signatures in the Indian subcontinent as a way to keep all government and private operations up and running. However, it is mandatory to use one's own Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) in India to digitally sign and seal important documents that are submitted to service providers in the government and both the public and private sectors. 

What is a digital signature certificate?

Digital signature certificates are the digital equivalent of physical or paper certificates issued for identification purposes. They are issued by a Government of India-authorized Certifying Authority (CA) once your identity has been verified. They must be used to eSign high-value transactions in India. Some popular use cases are: 

  • Banking: Application forms, sanction letters, loan forms, stock statements

  • Business: Job applications, interview letters, FORM-16, payslips, invoices, purchase orders, tax filings, company filings

  • Government: Digital locker, self-attestation, e-filing, passport application, bank and post office documents, birth and marriage forms
