Hey Guys,
Today, We will discuss about the application process for DSC class – 3 on the eMudra portal.
What is DSC Class – 3?
A Class 3 Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) is a type of DSC that is issued by a Certifying Authority (CA) in India. It is the highest level of DSC available and is used for high-security transactions, such as e-tendering, e-filing of income tax returns, and online banking.
Class 3 DSCs are based on the Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) and use a pair of cryptographic keys, a public key, and a private key, to create and verify digital signatures. The public key is used to verify the signature, while the private key is used to create the signature.

- E-tendering
- E-filing of income tax returns
- Online banking
