PAN or Permanent Account Number is one of the most requisite documents for financial transactions. It is a unique alphanumeric code allotted to an individual or a corporate entity by the Income Tax Department of the Government of India.
The PAN can be required for numerous purposes, from something as small as owning a cell phone number to as big as investing in mutual funds, buying a car, or opening a bank account. PAN is mandatory not only for taxpayers but also for every individual.
Being an important document of national value, the PAN Card application has to be filled out with great care in order to avoid mistakes. Sometimes in spite of the precautions taken, certain errors tend to occur.
It is always advised to double check the data while applying for new PAN Card. In case, any wrong information has been filled accidentally, or there is an unclear signature, photo, etc. corrections can be made. Here's how to amend incorrect information in the application:
Corrections for PAN can also be applied online through UTIITSL. The official website will have a corrections form, wherein the right details have to be filled. After the applicant has made the necessary changes and paid the fees, a receipt is generated which can be used as reference. The updated PAN Card will be sent by post to the address mentioned in the form by the applicant.
