New Delhi: Permanent Account Number (PAN) is a ten-digit unique alphanumeric number issued by the Income Tax Department. The first 5 characters are always alphabets, followed by 4 numerals and another alphabet. Along with the Aadhaar Card, the PAN card is one of the most important documents in India. The laminated plastic card issued by the Income Tax Department (I-T department) is popularly known as PAN card and is a very important financial document.

If you have misplaced or lost your PAN card, you can apply for a duplicate PAN online or offline. You can also download an electronic PAN card or e-PAN card from the IT department’s e-filing portal.
