delaysign attribute set to False. I need to sign this file. How do I perform
this?

Vijay,

Do you mean that the /delaysign- flag was used when compiling the
assembly? If so, you can't sign the file, since it should already be fully
signed and one of the benefits of strong naming an assembly is that you can
tell when it has been altered.

What is it that you are trying to do?

I have a DLL file that was built with DelaySign attribute set as false. I
don't have the source code with me to recomplie and set the attribute as
true and add a key. Is there any way I can do this without the source code?

Vijay,

You mean that the AssebmlyDelaySignAttribute is applied to the assembly
then. If this is the case, without the source code, there isn't a way you
can resign the dll. Since the DelaySign property is set to false, it means
that the assembly is fully signed.
