Not able to register as a ca on incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in

08 August 2016

I am a newly qualified CA (Nov '15), I want to get myself registered on https://incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in/ as a CA, when I am finished with all my personal details etc in Step 2 and after attaching my DSC it is showing a message as "Login User Id does not match with the generated Signature File. Please re-generate the Signature file".

I am not sure what kind of error is this and why am I facing this issue, I even googled it in the past few days still not able to find the solution.

Please can someone help me with the issue.

I am also attaching a screen shot of the same.

I just called Helpline No. of I.T dept and they said that the user id should be "ARCA123456" (here 123456 represents your ICAI membership no.) and it worked, anyhow thanks guys for your quick replies :)

I Guess you are facing issue while creating a DSC, Follow these steps

- In DSC Management Utility -> Go to second tab (i.e.,Register/Reset Password)

-in "Enter e-filing User ID" just mention ARCA123456 (i.e,. you have to just mention your membership number after ARCA)

- after that in next line you have to mention your PAN No.

and then try generating the signature file
