STATUTORY & WORKFLOW FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions: Sign Offer Letter Online

Are electronically signed offer letters and employment contracts legally binding in India?
Yes. Employment offer letters, appointment letters, and HR policy acknowledgments are NOT excluded under the First Schedule of the Information Technology Act, 2000. Under Section 10A and Section 5 of the IT Act, 2000, contracts formed and signed electronically are 100% valid and enforceable in Indian courts.
Should we use standard eSign or Aadhaar eSign for employee onboarding?
Both are legally valid under the IT Act, 2000. Many companies use standard Inscriben Sign (drawn/typed signature with email OTP and PAdES PKCS#7 seal) for initial offer letters or international hires, and use Aadhaar OTP eSign for final appointment letters, background verification consent, and NDA agreements for Indian residents.
Can candidates sign the offer letter on their phone without creating an account?
Yes. Candidates never need to create an Inscriben account or download an app. They simply click the secure signing link in their email or SMS, review the PDF in their mobile browser, and sign in under 45 seconds.
Can we send offer letters to 100+ campus hires at once?
Yes. With Inscriben's Workflow & Bulk Send engine, HR teams can upload a single CSV spreadsheet containing candidate names, emails, roles, and joining dates to dispatch hundreds of individual signing envelopes simultaneously.
