I think the digital signature will not be mandatory, because digital signature is mandatory only in cases where tax audit is mandatory.
If an assessee has opted for tax audit, he should not be required to file the return using digital signature.
Do not fill auditor's details in the ITR otherwise it will ask for digital signature.
"a firm required to furnish the return in Form ITR-5 or an individual or Hindu Undivided Family (HUF) required to furnish the return in Form ITR-4 and to whom provisions of Section 44AB are applicable, shall furnish the return for Assessment year 2011-12 and subsequent Assessment Years in the manner specified in clause (ii);”
So, you are not required for getting Digital Signature
