HOW THE PAN CARD NUMBER IS GENERATED

Structure and validation

  • PAN structure is as follows: AAAAA9999A: First five characters are letters, next 4 numerals, last character letter
  • Each assesse is uniquely identified by the PAN
  • If the PAN does not follow the above structure, then the PAN will be shown invalid
  • The fourth character of the PAN must be one of the following, depending on the type of assesse:
C — Company
P — Person
H — HUF(Hindu Undivided Family)
F — Firm
A — Association of Persons (AOP)
T — AOP (Trust)
B — Body of Individuals (BOI)
L — Local Authority
J — Artificial Juridical Person
G — Govt
  • The fifth character of the PAN is the first character
    • (a) of the surname / last name of the person, in the case of a “Personal” PAN card, where the fourth character is “P” or
    • (b) of the name of the Entity/ Trust/ Society/ Organisation in the case of Company/ HUF/ Firm/ AOP/ BOI/ Local Authority/ Artificial Jurdical Person/ Govt, where the fourth character is “C”,”H”,”F”,”A”,”T”,”B”,”L”,”J”,”G”.
Nowadays, the DOI (Date of Issue) of PAN card is mentioned at the right (vertical) hand side of the photo on the PAN card.

  3. For the FY 2011-12 and years before this, you need to visit Income Tax office and request them to allow you to do the return filing for these financial years so that you can do so by filling offline ITR forms.

  4. There might be the wrong mindset of some civilians, that PAN card is used as one of the proofs for Indian citizenship. PAN card is not considered as proof.

    Instead, it is used for the entrepreneurs or for financial transaction purposes, bank accounts holders and the people that receive government job salaries.
