It has to be personally signed. The Board can authorise more than one person for signing if the volume is high.

Mr.Srinivasaraghavan,

Which section under income tax act specifies the procedures to give authorisation to an employee for sigining the documents like Form 16/16A etc.,  Please clarify.

A authorised signatory can be appointed. Or, teh document can be digitally signed by the employer by generating his digital signature

Thanks everyone..
