When a document is signed by a person in his official capacity, for and on behalf of the office, the office will be held responsible for the acts of the individual.  This is civil liability.  However, if any offence has been committed or an attempt is being made, he apart from his office, will individually be responsible. ddkharpudikar@indiatimes.com
