Taxpayers had recently reported that they faced issues in using the Digital Signature Certificate at the time of E-filing income tax returns .

“This is because the latest browser versions have started disabling the standard way in which they support plug-in functions to address security,” the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) said on E-filing income tax returns .

Hence, the Java applet that was used by the E-filing income tax returns website “would not work” in the latest versions of Google Chrome, Mozilla or Internet Explorer, it said. “In order to address this issue and to simplify the procedure for uploading Income Tax return (ITR) with Digital Signature Certificate (DSC), an easy to use software utility has been developed which would have to be downloaded in taxpayer’s computer and used for signing using Digital Signature Certificate,” the CBDT said.
