25 May 2016 I am working as a Deputy Manager Finance in a company & responsible for tax deduction (TDS) in the Tax deduction Account Number (TAN) master data. I don't have digital signature.

My query is : Can i use digital signature of any Director of the company for authentication of TDS certificate in the Form 16/16A? Is there any specific provision under the Income Tax Act, 1961?

Thanks,
Vikash Khandelwal.
