Authorized signatory on excise invoices: multiple signatories allowed with departmental intimation; each full invoice set must bear the same signatory.
More than one authorised signatory may be used for excise invoices subject to departmental intimation, but each copy within a single invoice set must be signed by the same authorised person; different persons signing different copies of the same set is noncompliant. Digital signatures are typically issued in the name of the plant authorised signatory and remove the need for manual signatures. Invoice corrections should be made by debit or credit notes, and procedural lapses can sometimes be condoned if duty is paid. (AI Summary)
