Generally, electronically signed documents can be valid in India under the Information Technology Act, 2000, and the Indian Contract Act, 1872. Different types of documents may have specific requirements for signing and validity. For example, a lease agreement might require registration with the local authorities, regardless of the signing method. For further details contact us on our helpline number.
