  1. Dear Anurag, just to E-file income tax return, purchasing a Digital signature is not a good Idea. As of now, Digital signatures are costly (depending upon the intermediary) it may cost anywhere from 1500 Rs. to 3500 Rs. So drop the idea. 🙂

    Thanks

    Hi Anurag,

    For an individual, its not necessary to have a digital signature. The difference in having a digital signature is that, you don’t have to physically post the ITR Form V to CPC Bangalore. It can done electronically cos one has the digital signature.

    See the link below and you will get some more informatio.
