Users may now electronically sign PDFs and other documents.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><b>What are the Different Types of eSignature?<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\">Melento (Formerly SignDesk) provides a variety of eSignatures. Firms may select an appropriate type of eSign and manage their signing procedures online. The platform also offers free eSignatures for particular eSignature alternatives. Businesses can experiment with eSignatures on digital documents:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>OTP based eSignature<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\">This eSignature tool allows users to sign papers on the fly and is a quick and easy method to <span style=\"color: #333333;\"><a style=\"color: #333333;\" href=\"https:\/\/melento.ai\/en-in\/electronic-signature\">sign documents electronically<\/a><\/span>. A one-time password (OTP) is sent to the signer through phone or email. To finish e-signing the document, the OTP is input.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\">OTP eSignature benefits any business that wishes to complete document signing procedures more quickly, such as retail enterprises, FMCG organizations, consultants, etc<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Aadhaar-based eSignature<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\">A one-time password is also used to authenticate this eSignature (OTP). When the signer commences eSigning, his information is collected from the UIDAI database, and he receives an OTP on his Aadhaar-linked cellphone number. To e-sign the document, the signer inputs the OTP.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\"><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><a style=\"color: #333333;\" href=\"https:\/\/melento.ai\/en-in\/blog\/aadhaar-based-esign-ekyc-boost-workflow\">Aadhaar eSignature<\/a> <\/span>is primarily used in the BFSI industry to handle document signature operations securely.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Digital Signatures or DSC-based Signatures<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\">Only entities registered with the Comptroller of Certifying Authorities (CCA) may offer digital signature services.

With this method, individuals can sign documents by receiving an OTP verification to their registered email address and mobile number. Both Aadhaar and electronic signatures use this method. Here are the steps involved in this process:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\">Log in to the eSign website provided by Melento (Formerly SignDesk).<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\">Upload the document that needs to be signed onto the eSigning portal, or use templates to draft a new document.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\">Invite the required signers by sending them an email or SMS invitation.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\">The parties accepting the invitation can sign the document electronically within minutes using the OTP supplied to their Aadhaar-registered mobile number or digital signatures.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\">Once the document has been authenticated using eSignatures, Melento (Formerly SignDesk) will transmit the signed copy to all parties involved.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\">After an electronic document has been signed, it is stored securely and can be downloaded by all parties involved, including signers and stakeholders.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><b>Advantages of E-Signatures<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\">eSignatures have a <span style=\"color: #333333;\"><a style=\"color: #333333;\" href=\"https:\/\/melento.ai\/en-in\/blog\/esign-eco-friendly-way-signing-documents\">distinct edge over their physical counterparts<\/a><span style=\"color: #333333;\">. eSignatures are commonly used by businesses for the following reasons:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\">An individual can <b>sign a document online<\/b><span style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\"> from anywhere and, at the same time, get multiple parties to sign a document from different locations.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\"><b>eSignatures<\/b><span style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\"> are convenient and easy to use.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\">Physical or paper-based records will no longer be required, along with the space for storing such documents.
