Yes.Affixing of company seal is like authorised signature of the company.Common seal of the company binds it to the agreement or guarantee or contract it is entering into.

Now, with The Companies (Amendment) Act, 2015 coming into force the common seal is no more mandatory.it has been made optional. All such documents which required affixing the common seal may now instead be signed by two directors or one director and a company secretary of the company.
