As a citizen of India who contributes to the country's economy, have a PAN card is essential. The Government officially introduced the PAN card under Section 139A of the Income Tax Act of 1961. This was to counter and improve upon numerous disadvantages of the GIR (General Index Registrar Number) system that was in place before PAN. The main problem with the GIR was that it didn't provide unique numbers to taxpayers that often led to confusion and tax evasion.

It is that time of the year when talks about income tax filing returns are heard in every home and office. Did you know that one cannot file IT returns without PAN and without linking it to Aadhar card to Pan Card? What's that? The blue card that finds a place in your parents' wallet, along with credit and debit cards, is the PAN card. Take a look at it. You will find a photo of the card holder, name, surname and an aphla-numeric number and date of birth.

WHAT IS PAN?

Permanent Account Number (PAN) is a code issued by the Department of Income Tax. It is a 10-digit number-and-alphabet combination and is unique to each individual. Identify this number on your parent's card. And a PAN Card is a physical representation of this. It is a document that you must have to file your taxes and serve as proof of identity. It would be something like this - ABCDP4678H. This number enables the department to monitor financial transactions of the holder. It also helps the Income Tax department to keep track of the tax paid or evaded by an individual. The first ever such card was issued in 1964. It is also issued to foreign nationals such as investors.

Permanent Account Number (PAN) is a ten-digit alphanumeric number, issued in the form of laminated card, by the Income Tax Department, to any "person" who applies for it or to whom the department allots the number without an application.

PAN was introduced to facilitates linking of various documents, including payment of taxes, assessment, tax demand, tax arrears etc. relating to an assessee, to facilitate easy retrieval of information and to facilitate matching of information relating to investment, raising of loans and other business activities of taxpayers collected through various sources, both internal as well as external, for detecting and combating tax evasion and widening of tax base.

A typical PAN is AFZPK7190K.
  • First three characters i.e. “AFZ” in the above PAN are alphabetic series running from AAA to ZZZ
  • Fourth character of PAN i.e. “P” in the above PAN represents the status of the PAN holder. “P” stands for Individual, “F” stands for Firm, “C” stands for Company, “H” stands for HUF, “A” stands for AOP, “T” stands for TRUST etc.
  • Fifth character i.e. “K” in the above PAN represents first character of the PAN holder’s last name/surname.
  • Next four characters i.e. “7190” in the above PAN are sequential number running from 0001 to 9999.
  • Last character i.e. “K” in the above PAN is an alphabetic check digit.
WHY IT IS NECESSARY TO HAVE PAN?

It is mandatory to quote PAN on return of income, all correspondence with any income tax authority. From 1 January 2005 it will be mandatory to quote PAN on challans for any payments due to Income Tax Department. It is mandatory for an individual to declare his/her PAN when opening a bank account, receiving taxable salary or professional fees, while making certain high-value transactions, while buying a property or a car worth over a certain limit, buying or selling shares or mutual funds, applying for a visa/passport, making payment of income tax or filing tax return, and while applying for a bank loan. Through it, the Income Tax department is kept in the loop of one's income, property details, investment and tax payment. PAN, thus, acts as an identifier of the person with the tax department.
