# DSC for CERSAI security interest registration

Officers of banks, co-operative banks, NBFCs, housing finance companies and other financial institutions register, modify and satisfy security interests on CERSAI, and the portal asks them for a Class 3 signing DSC in the officer's own name. Search and report users do not need one. We fill and submit the application for you; you do the Aadhaar OTP and video KYC with the Certifying Authority, which issues the certificate. Application support is included in the price.

## Who needs this

- Officers of banks, co-operative banks and NBFCs registering a charge
- Officers modifying or satisfying a charge that is already registered
- Entity administrators who set up the lender's profile on the portal
- Officers who need one certificate for CERSAI and the tax and tender portals

## Documents required

- PAN card, name as per income tax records
- Aadhaar card, linked to that PAN and to the mobile. Photo and ID are captured live in the CA's video KYC.
- Email ID and mobile number for the DSC record
- Your bank's authorisation letter and your designation, as the Certifying Authority asks for them

## Process

1. **Send us your documents.** Send your contact details and documents on WhatsApp, by email or at our Udaipur office, and we fill the application.
2. **Complete payment.** Pay for the DSC and any add-ons
3. **We submit, you do the KYC.** We file the application with the Certifying Authority. You then confirm your mobile and email with OTPs, do the Aadhaar OTP and video KYC with them, and a final eKYC OTP on your phone approves the application. We assist you at every step.
4. **Receive token and register on CERSAI.** Get the USB token by courier (or use your own FIPS 140-3 token), then log in, select the certificate, enter the token PIN and accept it. The entity administrator on the portal approves the registration.

## Frequently asked questions

**Which class of DSC does CERSAI accept?**

Class 3 signing, for a new or a renewed certificate. A certificate of another class that you already hold keeps working on the portal until it expires.

**Does every CERSAI user need a DSC?**

No. Search and report roles do not need one. The roles that register, modify or satisfy a security interest do.

**Is the certificate in the name of the officer or the bank?**

In the officer's own name. The link between that person and the lender is made on the portal, so the certificate does not have to carry the bank's name.

**Can I use the same DSC for NeSL?**

Yes. NeSL, the information utility lenders register with, takes a DSC or an Aadhaar e-sign, and the same Class 3 signing certificate works there.

**How do I register the certificate on CERSAI?**

Log in, select the certificate from the plugged-in token, enter the PIN and accept it. Your entity administrator approves the registration from their side.

**Does a CERSAI DSC work for GST or Income Tax too?**

Yes. One Class 3 signing certificate covers the tax and business portals as well, and each portal registers it once on its own.
