Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether a Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) is mandatory for unregistered partnership firms filing their Income Tax Returns (ITR), especially if they are not subject to audit. While DSC is convenient for certain filings and platforms like the MCA website, it's not a requirement for ITR filing. Aadhaar OTP can be used for verification. DSC is typically applicable for companies, partnerships, and AOPs, but for a low-turnover unregistered partnership not requiring an audit, Aadhaar OTP is generally sufficient.

DSC has nothing to do with this.
It's just a convient way to sign when physical sign are not possible or It is used mostly for MCA website

And for filing ITR, it can be verified by aadhar OTP.

incase of more info pm me...
In the add key person page of e filing portal dsc is mentioned. I don't have one, that is the reason for raising this query.

Please let me know if DSC is mandatory. We used it initially later changed to Aadhar OTP. Ow we find DSC mentioned in the profile page.  Should we use DSc or Aadhar OTP will do.

Dsc is not mandatory.
but applicable in case it is a company, partnership or aop.
It's a partnership firm with a very low turnover and is not subject to audit under section 44AB
