Class 3 DSC for MCA

Price includes GST and standard door delivery across India. No separate GST or standard delivery charge is added to the stated starting package.

Still using an old FIPS 140-2 DSC?

Your existing DSC is not automatically invalid merely because the transition date has passed. Certificates downloaded into FIPS 140-2 tokens on or before 21 September 2026 generally remain valid until their certificate expiry. However, fresh downloads and normal renewals on these modules are no longer permitted, subject to specified exceptions. Check your certificate expiry before your next MCA filing.

Facing an MCA DSC Not Detected Error?

We also assist with MCA Business User upgrades, Role Check validation, DSC association, token driver installation and emSigner/emBridge setup. You do not have to struggle with MCA V3 errors alone.

FIPS 140-2 vs FIPS 140-3: What Changed for Your DSC?

FIPS 140-3 is the updated cryptographic security standard adopted for fresh DSC issuance following the CCA transition deadline of 21 September 2026. Businesses applying for or renewing a Class 3 DSC for MCA Filings should select a compatible FIPS 140-3 USB token.

Already using an old FIPS 140-2 token?

Your existing DSC is not automatically invalid. If it was downloaded into the token on or before 21 September 2026, it can generally continue working until its certificate expires. However, fresh DSC downloads and normal renewals on these modules are no longer permitted, subject to specified exceptions.

When should you buy a new DSC token?

  • Your director’s or designated partner’s DSC is expiring.
  • You need a fresh Class 3 DSC for MCA or ROC filings.
  • Your existing USB token is damaged or needs replacement.
  • You are adding a new authorised signatory to your company or LLP.

Before purchasing: Check the token model and its FIPS 140-3 validation details. FIPS 140-3 has four security levels; Level 3 must be verified against the specific token’s validation certificate and should not be assumed for every device.

DSC Sign helps you identify the appropriate token, apply for your Class 3 DSC and complete the required MCA DSC association process.

Class 3 DSC for MCA and ROC Filings

Whether you are registering a new company, incorporating an LLP or completing annual ROC compliance, the appropriate Class 3 DSC for MCA Filings is required for digitally signing applicable e-forms.

Common MCA and ROC forms requiring DSC

  • Company Incorporation: SPICe+ (INC-32), eMOA (INC-33) and eAOA (INC-34), as applicable.
  • LLP Incorporation: FiLLiP application.
  • LLP Agreement: Form 3 for filing the initial or amended LLP Agreement.
  • Financial Statements: AOC-4 filing.
  • Company Annual Return: MGT-7 / MGT-7A.
  • Director Changes: DIR-12 appointment or cessation filings.
  • Other ROC Filings: INC-22 and PAS-3, where applicable.
  • LLP Annual Compliance: Form 8 and Form 11.

Depending on the form, the required signatory may be a director, designated partner, authorised representative or practising professional. Some filings require more than one DSC.

Important for MCA V3: Buying a DSC is only the first step. The person signing the form must associate the DSC with the appropriate Business User profile on the MCA portal. Existing MCA V2 DSC associations must be completed again on MCA V3.

DSC Sign assistance: We help applicants select the appropriate Class 3 DSC, check token compatibility and complete MCA V3 DSC association guidance for company and LLP filings.

MCA DSC Not Detected Error – How to Fix It?

Is MCA V3 showing “DSC not detected”, “Please start emBridge” or failing when you click Associate DSC or Sign? The issue may be with the USB token driver, signing utilities, MCA user profile or DSC association—not necessarily a defective certificate.

Check these common MCA DSC issues

  • USB token not detected: Check the USB connection, token driver and certificate visibility.
  • emSigner / emBridge error: Check the required MCA signing utilities and ensure they are properly installed and running.
  • DSC association failed: Log in as a Business User. A Registered User cannot associate a DSC.
  • DSC already registered: Verify whether the certificate is associated with the correct MCA user profile.
  • Old MCA V2 association: DSCs associated on MCA V2 must be associated again on MCA V3.
  • Token PIN issue: Follow the token provider’s instructions for PIN setup or reset.
Important: Purchasing a new DSC token alone will not complete MCA registration. The DSC must be associated with the appropriate MCA V3 Business User profile before it can be used for filing.

How DSC Sign helps

Our DSC processing team assists with token driver checks, emSigner and emBridge installation guidance, MCA Business User profile upgrades, DSC Role Check validation and DSC association. We help identify whether the problem relates to your token, certificate or MCA profile.

MCA Role Check – Registered User to Business User Upgrade

Is your MCA portal showing a DSC association error even though you have a valid Class 3 DSC? One common reason is that your MCA account is still registered as an Individual / Registered User instead of the required Business User role.

How to upgrade your MCA user profile

  1. Log in to the official MCA portal.
  2. Click your profile name and open Profile Update Page.
  3. Select Add Role.
  4. Choose the appropriate Business User role, such as Director/Designated Partner, Manager/Secretary/Authorised Representative, Officer in Default or Professional.
  5. Enter the required identification details and complete the portal’s validation process.
  6. Use the Show DSC option in the profile area to check the associated DSC and its linked identification number, wherever displayed.
Important MCA Role Check: Your DSC must be associated with the correct identification number used in the e-form, such as DIN, PAN or professional membership number. A mismatch can cause a DSC association error during filing. An existing DSC may automatically be linked to an added role after profile upgrade, so check the portal before attempting another association.

How DSC Sign assists

Our DSC processing team, led by Karan M, helps with MCA Role Check validation, Business User profile upgrade guidance, DSC association and token-related technical issues. This is useful for directors, LLP designated partners and practising professionals facing MCA V3 filing errors.

Documents Required for Class 3 DSC – Online Application

Applying for a Class 3 DSC for MCA filings is straightforward when your identity and contact details are ready. The Certifying Authority must verify the applicant before issuing the certificate.

Keep these documents and details ready

  • PAN Card: For applicant identity and PAN verification.
  • Aadhaar Card: For Aadhaar-based eKYC, where selected.
  • Address proof: An accepted government identity or address document, where required by the verification method.

How DSC Sign helps with the application

Once you submit the online order request, our DSC processing team will review your requirement and guide you on the appropriate KYC process. You can complete the required verification online, subject to the Certifying Authority’s procedure.

For fresh DSC issuance and renewal, choose a compatible FIPS 140-3 validated cryptographic token. Check the exact token model and its validation details before purchasing.
