eMudhra Aadhaar eKYC - Now also for Organization DSC
Below are some of the information, which may help you.
eMudhra have now enabled Organizational DSC in Aadhaar eKYC. Please note that:
1. Physical documents of Organization are mandatory to be submitted to eMudhra. (Proof of Organization)
2. These should be attested by Authorized Signatory and sent to us.
3. Separate Authorization letter is not required. However, the application should also be attested by Authorized Signatory, in the space provided.
The advantages are:
1. There is no need of Mobile Verification.
2. There is no need of Video Verification for Class 3.
3. There is no need for GO/BM/PM attestation.
4. There is no need of Applicant Photo, nor the Signature of the applicant.
Other matters:
1. eMudhra have also enabled Class 1 Certificate for Aadhaar eKYC based issuance. (You need to have stock to process this product. Also, this is not accepted for Income Tax / MCA / Other major websites. So we advise you to clearly check the need, in case you have to use this.)
2. eMudhra have not yet enabled DGFT certificate issuances through Aadhaar eKYC. eMudhra is working on this and would be introduced soon
3. There were some connectivity issues to Income Tax Server during 02nd and 03rd August, where PAN was present in the application. However, eMudhra have been closely working them and is stable since then.
4. eMudhra is getting Reports of applicants forgetting “Download Password / Challenge Code”. In cases where both mobile and email does not exist, it is hard to recover the password. So, you may please suggest the applicants to give more importance while defining the password. We have noticed some of the partners guiding the applicants to give Mother's name, date of birth, pan number, etc. These may help in easier recall.
5. You may contact us for biometric devices, or contact the manufacturers.
The number of DSCs issued through Aadhaar eKYC is substantially increasing day by day. On the other hand, 89.20 Crore of Aadhaar numbers are allocated, and still running. In the past few months, government has given special importance on deduplication, fraud prevention and popularization of Aadhaar. It is also running special programs to update Mobile number and Email ID, so that mobile governance can be a reality soon.
Aadhaar eKYC is not a mandate. However, there is substantial benefit with Aadhaar eKYC.
