Expired DSC Blocks MCA21AOC-4 by 30 Sept, MGT-7 by 29 Nov. Expired DSC = can't sign forms = Rs 100/day late fee (no cap). Patron tracks expiry for all Delhi clients
DGFT Portal RejectionOkhla exporters: Organisation DSC name or PAN not matching IEC database at DGFT Delhi = portal authentication failure. Patron verifies before application
Legacy USB Token IncompatiblePost CCA March 2023: older pre-FIPS 140-3 tokens discontinued. Delhi businesses with 2020-22 tokens can't download new DSC. New FIPS token required
