A Digital Signature is the one which defines the authenticity of a digital document.
Its validity relieves both sender and receiver from being a prey of crime.It is the most important tool in the business for authenticity of transaction in all types of interection through computer like business to business commerce (b2b commerce) where business deals meet each other for trading of goods and services. Most important advantage of digital signature is that it can never be altered in transit, because of the private key or password which is known only to the user who has signed the document.

We can say that digitally signed document can even easily detect the act of forgery, fraud etc which can't be easily detect on a printed or written document, reason is any signature can easily be imitated by anyone. that's why DSC has its prefernce over the signature through pen. Even on the portal of Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) need a digital signature. A director signed a balance sheet in printed form but as i mentioned earlier that it can be easily imitated.That's why MCA has organised a system of signing Balance Sheet (Form 23AC) and Profit and Loss Account (Form 23ACA) digitally with proper authentication.

While uploading forms on MCA,MCA system shows the validity of DSC, if it is not forged.After that forms are approved by MCA othrwise , forms can never be uploaded or sometimes it can lead to severe penality. If signature of the directors are penalty then, it forms will be uploaded and approved easily within seconds.

DSC has a legal significance in our country nly a icensed certifying authority can issue the digital signature. According to the Income Tax act, Section 24, certifying authority means a person who has been granted a license to issue a Digital Signature Certificate (DSC). Best of all it is cheaper in cost. It takes very less time to certifying authority to provide a DSC, say , within a week.

One can validate it for two years , maximum and after that they have to obtain it again or, can say , renew it again.

It is based on asymetric cryptography, i.s, holder of private key can decrypt or encrypt while the holder of public key can only encrypt. It provides the facility of non-reputation too in which one cannot claim that he/she hasn't signed that documnet or contract.

For a digital signature certificate all you have to do is send your information alongwith a proof and don't froget to mention the time for its validation. In DSC, it should be infeasible to generate it for anyone who doesn't possed the private key. DSC is why too secured, transactions are highly reliable and authenticated, alongwith so manyadvantages that normal hard copy document which is signed by a pen doen't have.
