Digital signature for Form C uncertain: no express provision allowing digitally signed Form C, only portal DSC guidance.
The statutory position is that there is no express provision permitting issuance of Form C using a digital signature, although the Tamil Nadu Commercial Taxes Department has issued administrative guidance on use of Digital Signature Certificates for accessing the TNVAT online portal, which relates to portal interaction and not to authorising digitally signed issuance of Form C.
