The Income Tax Department NEVER asks for your PIN numbers, passwords or similar access information for credit cards, banks or other financial accounts through e-mail.

The Income Tax Department appeals to taxpayers NOT to respond to such e-mails and NOT to share information relating to their credit card, bank and other financial accounts.

PAN - ONLINE APPLICATION

Application for fresh allotment of PAN can be made through Internet. Further, requests for changes or correction in PAN data or request for reprint of PAN card (for an existing PAN) may also be made through Internet.

Online application can be made either through the portal of Protean (formerly NSDL eGov) ( https://tin.tin.nsdl.com/pan/index.html) or portal of UTITSL (https://www.pan.utiitsl.com/PAN/​​​​​​​​) or Instant E-PAN through Income-tax E-filing Portal (https://www.incometax.gov.in/iec/foportal/). The charges for applying for PAN is Rs. 91 (Excluding Goods and Services tax​) for Indian communication address and Rs. 862 (Excluding Goods and Services tax) for foreign communication address. Payment of application fee can be made through credit/debit card, demand draft or net-banking. Once the application and payment is accepted, the applicant is required to send the supporting documents through courier/post to Protean (formerly NSDL eGov)/UTITSL. The applicant can also do e-verification using the Aadhaar based OTP. Only after the receipt of the documents/OTP verification, PAN application would be processed by Protean (formerly NSDL eGov)/UTITSL.

In case of Instant E-PAN service, PAN is paperless, online and free of cost. This facility is only for those applicants who have an Aadhaar number from UIDAI and have registered their mobile number with Aadhaar. Applicants applying under this service will only be issued an e-PAN which is also a valid form of PAN.

For New PAN applications, in case of Individual and HUF applicants if Address for Communication is selected as Office, then Proof of Office Address along with Proof of residential address is to be submitted to Protean (formerly NSDL eGov) w.e.f. applications made on and after 1st November 2009.
