Quick Summary

To update a DSC on the Income Tax Reporting Portal, users can upload the certificate through the profile section. The portal accepts a .cer file, which is generally provided by the DSC vendor along with the digital signature package. Contact the DSC provider if the certificate file is unavailable.

For uploading Form 60, 61A, 61B, these Statements need to be digitally signed by the Designated Director of the Reporting Entity.

The steps to upload a digital signature are as follows:

Step 1: Go to Profile section of Reporting Portal.

Step 2: Click Upload Digital Signature from the sidebar.

Step 3: Click Upload/Edit Certificate to locate the digital signature file on your computer machine. (In case you are uploading certificate for the first time, user will get suggested text as “upload certificate”)

Step 4: Select the file and click Upload

It is provided by DSC provider, when you order java compatible DSC, i.e you receive DSC files with .cer, .p7s or .p7b file extension. So, contact your DSC provider, in case you have not received the same.
