FAQs on DSC

Can I use one DSC for multiple purposes?

Yes, a DSC can be used for GST, MCA, Income Tax, and e-Tendering. However, DGFT DSC is specifically for Import-Export businesses.

Can DSC be shared with others?

No, a DSC is personal and should only be used by the authorized person. Sharing may lead to legal violations.

What happens if my DSC expires?

You cannot use an expired DSC. You need to apply for a new one.

How long does it take to get a DSC?

Generally, 1-2 working days after verification.

Can I get a DSC without Aadhaar?

Yes, but additional KYC verification (passport, voter ID, etc.) is required. Aadhaar e-KYC is the fastest method.
