PAN Card Update: A project to update PAN cards has been approved by the central government. This upcoming project will be released as part of the government’s Digital India initiative. After the cabinet made its decision, various queries regarding PAN have surfaced, including one concerning updating addresses and receiving new PAN cards. Information regarding this has been given by the Income Tax Department. Let’s determine the guidelines for the address in the new PAN 2.0.
How to receive a new PAN card?
Ever since PAN 2.0 was announced, individuals are wondering about the process of receiving a new PAN card for those who have relocated without changing their address. The Income Tax Department has mentioned that a new PAN card will be given only if the cardholder requests for an update or correction. This indicates that you will only get the new PAN card with a QR code after applying for the updated one, and your old card will still be usable.
The query on updating the address in the PAN card has been addressed by the Income Tax Department. The department has confirmed that PAN holders can update their address or make corrections without any charges. All they have to do is go to the NSDL or UTIISL website and update their address with their Aadhaar. Corrections can also be made from that location. In order to update the residential address on your PAN card, the initial step is to visit the UTIISL website.
Following that, you will be required to provide your PAN number, Aadhaar number, email address, and contact number. Once you have entered all the information, selecting the option to change the address will automatically update it with the Aadhaar card.
