“Having a PAN card is very important for financial activities like opening a bank account or buying a property.
If you lose or break this important document, don’t worry! You can easily get a new one without visiting any offices, right from your home in just 10 minutes.
To get a new PAN card, you need a valid Aadhaar number linked with your PAN and a registered mobile number. You can apply for an E-PAN using your Aadhaar card only.
Here’s a quick guide
1) Log in to the Income Tax Department’s e-portal.
2) Click on ‘Instant E PAN’ on the homepage.
3) Select ‘Guest New PAN’ on the new PAN page.
4) Enter your Aadhaar number, confirm, and click ‘Continue.’
After requesting a PAN card, you can download your E-PAN by following these steps:
1) Log in to the e-filing portal with your user ID and password.
2) Look for ‘e-PAN’ on the dashboard or click on the download option.
3) Enter your 12-digit Aadhaar number and click ‘Continue.’
4) You’ll receive an OTP on your mobile; enter it to download your PAN card.
Now, you can use your new PAN card wherever needed.
