Quick Summary
This discussion explores the use of Digital Signature Certificates (DSC) by directors for approving financial statements at board meetings and certifying resolution copies. It clarifies that directors can indeed use DSC as a substitute for physical signatures, particularly for the current year, in line with recent legislative changes.

“Clause 134.—This clause corresponds to sections 215, 216 and 217 of the Companies Act, 1956 and seeks to provide that the financial statement including consolidated financial statements should be approved by the Board of Directors before they are signed and submitted to auditors for their report. The auditor’s report is to be attached to every financial statement. A report by the Board of Directors containing details on the matters specified including Director’s responsibility statement shall be attached to every financial statement laid before company.

Yes Director s can use dsc instead of physical signature only for this year.
