Last updated on April 3rd, 2021

While filing Income Tax Returns (ITR), the Income Tax Department (ITD) uses data from the PAN Card to pre-fill certain details in the ITR forms. The address of the applicant is not mentioned on the PAN card, however, it is kept in the records of the Income Tax Department (ITD) who issues the PAN card. Additionally, the PAN card can also be used as a valid proof of identity. Thus, any incorrect information on the PAN card can lead to problems in the future. Moreover, if the PAN card was issued from the UTIITSL portal, then the applicant has to file an application on the UTIITSL portal to update the address on PAN.

Steps to Update Address on the PAN Card

Visit the UTIITSL Portal.
Click on the For PAN Cards > Apply PAN Card option from the dashboard ON UTIITSL Portal.
Click on the “Facility for address update in PAN database through eKYC mode” option.

Hey @TeamQuicko, what is the minimum age required for getting a PAN card?

Hey @SonalYadav,

No - you cannot randomly select your AO code and type just based on the state. In TIN-NSDL PAN application you need to select AO based on the description provided on the AO in the Help utility for AO selection after you select State and City, as shown in the image below -

So once you select State and City - you’ll see a list of AO’s with different descriptions. Most common one - if you’re salaried with income below 20 lacs as seen in this example it will be WARD 7(1)(4) in Ahmedabad, as we chose Ahmedabad as the city for this example.

Similarly AOs will be different for Government sector employees, business owners, etc. Once you select that AO, AO type and code will automatically be filled in the respective fields of your application.

If you’re still confused regarding your AO, you’re best suited to get professional help for the same. Choose Quicko’s PAN Application Plan and have your PAN application handled by professionals in hassle free manner.

Hope this helped! Feel free to reach out in case of further queries.

What are the steps to download a PAN card PDF?

Hey @SonalYadav

To get an e-PAN or a PDF version of PAN card - you can:
- Apply for a reprint of your PAN card (not a new PAN)
Steps to apply for Reprint/Duplicate e-PAN via NSDL website
- Visit NDSL portal → New PAN application page
- Select option for Application Type → Changes or Correction in existing PAN data/ Reprint of PAN Card & Category as applicable(Eg. Individual, HUF, Firm, LLP, etc)
- Fill out personal information in corresponding fields, go next
- Temporary token number will be generated for your application, which you’ll use throughout the process (Note down this temporary token number) & Click Continue with PAN Application Form.
Note: If during the application process the session times out or you wish to continue later - you can click on Registered user tab and use your token number to resume the application
- Select mode of submission for application documents, there are three ways -
  - Digitally (through e-KYC & e-Sign, using Aadhar)
  - Scanned images through e-Sign on C-DAC or NSDL
  - Forward application documents Physically
Among these options, e-KYC through Aadhaar is the easiest, since you don’t need to submit further documents as proof of your identity and your e-KYC is completed using Aadhaar OTP.
- Under the mode of delivery → select e-PAN option
- Enter Aadhaar details (Recommended, not mandatory) and complete other personal details like gender, parents name, etc.
- Next, enter only your mobile number and go next - there’ll be options to change details. If you are applying for a reprint you won’t need to change them as you just need a reprint.
- Complete the declaration and upload the list of documents.
  - copy of your PAN card as proof of PAN
  - Address proof,
  - identity & Date of Birth (Aadhar by default for e-KYC)
- You’ll see a summary of the application before the final submission - review the details and confirm the submission.
- Pay application fees - to mention a mode of payment via which you’ll complete your application (Demand Draft/Online Banking, Cards)
- Enter the OTP sent on your Aadhaar registered mobile number to verify the details.
It usually takes 15–20 days to receive the duplicate PAN card.

Hey @HarshitShah

Go to Know Your PAN and enter your Name, Date of Birth and mobile number to fetch your PAN details from Income Tax database.

Or, you can get your old PAN Number from:
- Previously filed ITR (Income Tax Return)
- Request your bank to provide you with your PAN number, that you linked with your bank account.
Once you fetch your PAN number, you can apply for a reprint of your PAN on Quicko or on NSDL website - refer Team Quicko’s answer to How can I get a new duplicate copy of my pan card

Hope that answered your question! In case you need further assistance, feel free to send us a message or mention a comment below.

Hey @ViraajAhuja47

It is very easy to get an acknowledgement number

You can get this number Online or Offline:

If you have applied for a new Pan Card or have applied to change any data in the existing Pan Database, the acknowledgement number can be found in Pan Acknowledgement sheet or on the Pan Acknowledgement form that has been provided to you.

If you applied online for PAN, the acknowledgement number will be delivered to your given Email Id.

After getting the acknowledgement number you can track you PAN status using NSDL website.

Hope this helps!
