What is a DSC
A government-grade digital identity for signing.
A Digital Signature Certificate is the electronic equivalent of a handwritten signature — legally recognised under India's Information Technology Act, 2000. It uses public-key cryptography to prove whosigned a document and that it hasn't been altered.
Today, only Class 3 certificates are issued, by Certifying Authorities licensed by the Controller of Certifying Authorities (CCA). CAREALL guides you through the whole process and your certificate is issued by a licensed CA.
Legally valid
Equivalent to a handwritten signature under the IT Act, 2000 (Section 5).
Class 3 only
The highest-assurance class — Class 1 & 2 are discontinued in India.
Tamper-proof
Public-key cryptography proves who signed and that nothing was altered.
Secure token
Your private key lives on a FIPS 140-2 USB crypto token — never exportable.

Signing vs Combo
Do you just sign — or do you bid on tenders?
Every Class 3 DSC signs documents. Only a Combo certificate can also encrypt — which the e-tender portals require.
Signing DSC
Authenticates your identity on a document. The right choice for most filings.
Use for
Income-tax · GST · MCA / ROC · EPFO · DGFT (IEC) · Trademark & Patent
Sign + Encrypt (Combo)
Signs and encrypts, so confidential bids stay sealed until opening.
Use for
e-Tenders & e-procurement — GeM · CPPP · IREPS · MSTC · ICEGATE
Bidding on government tenders?Most e-tender portals (GeM, CPPP, IREPS) reject signing-only certificates — you'll need a Combo. Not sure? We'll confirm the right one for you.
Where it's used
One certificate, every government portal.
A single Class 3 DSC works across the portals you file on — register it once per portal and sign.
