06 January 2012 error is displayed while I am registering DSC in income tax portal, not at the time of uploading xml file.

24 July 2024 The error message "Certificate is INVALID: Can not find trusted parent certificate" typically indicates an issue with the digital signature certificate (DSC) itself or how it is installed and recognized on your computer. Here are steps you can take to resolve this issue and successfully register the karta's DSC for filing the HUF (Hindu Undivided Family) return on the Income Tax e-filing portal:

### Steps to Resolve DSC Registration Error:

1. **Ensure Validity and Installation**:
- **Validity Check**: Make sure that the digital signature certificate (DSC) being used is valid and has not expired.
- **Installation**: Ensure that the DSC is properly installed on the computer where you are trying to register it. Follow the installation instructions provided by the issuer of the DSC.

2. **Trusted Parent Certificate**:
- The error "Can not find trusted parent certificate" suggests that there might be an issue with the certification chain or the root certificate authority (CA) being recognized by your system.
- Check if the necessary root and intermediate certificates for your DSC are installed on your computer. These certificates establish a chain of trust from your DSC to a trusted root CA.

3. **Update Certificate Trust Settings**:
- Sometimes, updating your operating system and browser to the latest versions can resolve issues related to certificate validation.
- Ensure that your browser's settings are configured to trust digital certificates and that any security software or firewall settings do not interfere with the certificate validation process.

4. **Reinstall DSC Drivers**:
- If you are using a hardware token (USB token) for your DSC, reinstall the drivers provided by the token manufacturer.
- Ensure that the token is correctly inserted into the USB port and recognized by your computer.

5. **Clear Browser Cache**:
- Sometimes, clearing your browser's cache and cookies can resolve unexpected issues with the e-filing portal. Try clearing these and then attempt the registration process again.

6. **Use Supported Browsers**:
- Ensure you are using a compatible and supported browser (like Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Edge) for registering the DSC on the Income Tax e-filing portal.

7. **Consult DSC Provider**:
- If the issue persists despite these steps, contact the issuer of your DSC (Certifying Authority) for technical support. They can provide specific guidance or updates related to your DSC and its installation.

### Additional Tips:

- **Documentation**: Keep documentation of your DSC handy, including any correspondence with the DSC provider or issuer.
- **Backup**: Always have a backup of your DSC and its associated files in a secure location.

By following these steps, you should be able to address the "Certificate is INVALID: Can not find trusted parent certificate" error and successfully register the karta's DSC for filing the HUF return on the Income Tax e-filing portal. If the issue persists, consider seeking assistance from a professional IT consultant or contacting the Income Tax Department's e-filing support for further troubleshooting.
