PAN Card Services
Assisted PAN applications: a fresh allotment for a first-time applicant, a correction where the name, date of birth or father name is wrong, and a reprint where the card is lost or damaged. Most rejections come from a mismatch between the application and the supporting identity document, so the two are checked against each other before submission.
What you get

- Correction of name, date of birth, photograph or signature on an existing PAN
- Reprint of a lost or damaged card without a change to the PAN itself
- Application details matched against the supporting document before submission
- e-PAN delivered by email, with the physical card despatched where requested
- Acknowledgement number retained so the operator can track status to despatch
FAQ
About pan card services
What happens if a PAN is not linked to Aadhaar?
It becomes inoperative, and an inoperative PAN behaves as though it does not exist for most purposes: filings are blocked, refunds are held, TDS is deducted at the higher rate applicable to a missing PAN, and demat and mutual fund applications are rejected. It can be made operative again by completing the linkage, subject to the fee prescribed for late linking.
Can someone hold two PANs?
No. Holding more than one PAN is an offence and carries a penalty. It usually happens by accident, when someone applies afresh instead of requesting a correction or a reprint. The correct route is to surrender the additional PAN and retain one, which is why a correction is checked for before a new application is filed.
