is DSC is mandatory for all the directors in a company

Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies the necessity of a Director's Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) for company directors. While a DSC is linked to the KYC process requiring a Director Identification Number (DIN), it's not perpetually mandatory. Once the initial KYC is completed, subsequent annual KYC is web-based, potentially negating the need for a recurring DSC.

DSC is mandatory in a way that you will have to file in for the KYC which requires DIN. If that is done then not required because from 2nd year KYC is web-based.
