E-signature & Documents
Zoho Sign
Digital signature app from Zoho for sending, signing, and managing documents, with Aadhaar eSign.
FindThatSoftware verdictEditorial ruling
A strong India-first e-signature choice, especially for Zoho users, with Aadhaar eSign support and INR billing. Standalone buyers should compare with DocuSign on integrations. Verify current per-user pricing and Aadhaar eSign availability on your plan.
FindThatSoftware has source-checked this listing and keeps 2 public sources visible for buyer verification.
Should you use Zoho Sign?
Use it if indian businesses needing legal e-sign. Avoid it if small teams that want a custom domain and white label, since Zoho restricts both to organisations holding ten or more licensed users.

Claim this listing →In short
Zoho Sign is a commerce & operations / e-signature & documents for Indian buyers. It costs about ₹650/mo before GST, billed in rupees. It issues an India GST invoice, so you can claim input credit. FindThatSoftware rates it best for indian businesses needing legal e-sign, and a poor fit if small teams that want a custom domain and white label, since Zoho restricts both to organisations holding ten or more licensed users.
The trade-off, weighed
What you gain, and what you give up.
The case for
- Standard costs 800 rupees per user a month billed monthly and 650 billed annually, and signers never need an account or a paid seat to sign.
- Aadhaar eSign, eMudhra eKYC signing and USB token DSC signing are all listed plan features, so the India-legal signature paths are built in.
- The free plan covers one user and five envelopes a month, which is enough for a founder signing the occasional contract.
The catch
- Envelopes sent through the API or third-party apps always consume Zoho Sign credits, whichever plan you pay for.
- Credits are sold only in blocks of 500 at 6 rupees each, so the smallest possible credit top-up is 3,000 rupees.
- Complimentary credits go to Enterprise subscribers alone, at 50 per user a month and capped at 2,500 for the whole organisation.
- Standard caps you at 25 envelopes per user each month, and SMS delivery, OTP authentication, stamp duty payment and timestamping each burn credits on top.
True India price
Registered business, per month
₹650
Zoho Sign is billed in rupees at ₹650/mo, so there is no forex markup. A registered business reclaims GST, so that is roughly the cost (₹7,800/yr). Without reclaim, add 18% for about ₹767 a month.

Indicative, not a bill. The exchange rate is a single mid-market reference, not a live feed, and GST-registered businesses may reclaim input credit. Confirm current pricing on the vendor site.

Best for
