A website called NotarEase is functional and is notarising documents to be filed in Indian Courts online. See https://notarease.com/about

Its CEO is Karmanya Singh Sareen, the son of Justice Pratibha Singh and lawyer Maninder Singh. 
Its COO is another lawyer called Sahib Singh Dhillon. Another lawyer Kirishnagopakl Abhay is the Adviser Legal. 

The Notaries Act does not provide for any such online notarisation. For such online notarisation, the law needs to be amended and the service providers regulated by the Government. 

This website is a purely private enterprise with no sanction of law. The service they are offering is illegal and unregulated.

The website contains a set of compilation of orders claiming that the Delhi High Court has accepted documents notarised by NotarEase. This compilation is attached. There are two orders of Justice Sanjiv Narula, one order of Justice Hari Shankar and one order of Justice Saurabh Bannerjee. It is submitted that these orders cannot be seen as recognizing NotarEase or the online notarization process which is contrary to the Notaries Act as it exists today. What is concerning is that lawyers Karmanya Singh Sareen, Sahib Singh Dhillon and Krishnagopal Abhay have also appeared as counsel in these cases. 

This needs to be looked into at your end. 

These orders need to be appealed or reviewed by the Ministry of Law and Justice. 

Any such online notarisation requires amendment of the Notaries Act and has to be regulated by the Government. This is especially required in view of rampant fraud on the Court through the filing of forged affidavits.
