Where can I get a Pan Card?

The Unit Trust of India Investor Services Limited (UTI-ISL) has started dispatching Income Tax Permanent Account Number (PAN) cards from Friday.

Getting the new PAN card

Application for PAN should be made in prescribed form (Form 49A) and submitted in any of the I-T PAN Service Centers set up and managed by UTIISL across the country. I-T PAN Service Centers From July 1, 2003, I-T PAN Service Centers have been set up in all cities or towns where I-T offices are located.

For further convenience of PAN applicants in major cities there will be more than one I-T PAN Service Center.Location and other details about I-T PAN Service Centers in any city can be obtained from local Income Tax Office or offices of UTI or UTIISL in that city or from Web site of the Income Tax department (http://www.incometaxindia.gov.in) or of UTIISL (http://www.utiisl.co.in).

These I-T PAN Service Centers shall supply and receive PAN applications on behalf of all Assessing Officers, assist PAN applicants to correctly fill up the applications, check documents to be submitted as proof of 'identity' and 'address' by the applicant and issue acknowledgment for correct and complete applications.

The I-T PAN Service Centers will not accept incomplete or incorrect applications.The UTIISL has made arrangements to capture data from PAN applications and transmit it to the Income Tax Department.The Income Tax department will allot PAN and send necessary data to UTIISL where PAN card will be printed and delivered to the applicant.

From October 1, 2003 I-T PAN Service Centers will also receive and process grievances arising out of errors or requests for changes in PAN data.The new superior PAN card.The new PAN card is a superior card and in case of individual applicants it will carry a colored photo-image. It is tamper proof and has built-in security features such as a hologram and UV line. These security features will thwart forgery of PAN cards.

For providing upgraded PAN services, UTIISL has been authorized to collect Rs.60 per application. New simplified PAN form will cost Rs.5.The UTIISL has set up at least one counter in each of the 501 cities as requested by the Income Tax department. Most of these counters for PAN have been set up at I-T offices. In big cities, UTIISL has set up more counters.

Service counters have also been set up at 50 branches of UTI MF to handle PAN card customers.The database on the information related to your PAN card remains with the government and UTIISL cannot use it for any other purpose.Existing cards valid, but you can get a new one

The existing PAN cards would continue to be valid. It is optional for these PAN card holders to obtain the new plastic cards.Anyone who had already received a permanent account number, but did not have the card, now has the option of either asking the Income-Tax department for an existing type of laminated card, or opt for a smart card by applying for it.

The applications which are pending with the I-T department (application made till June 30, 2003) would also be issued the old card, but if an individual wishes, he or she can go for the new card after paying Rs 60. All applications made from July 1 onwards will be handled by UTI-ISL and applicants will be given the new PAN cards.

Track your PAN card status online.A Web-enabled tracking system to enable tax payers and applicants to find out the status of their PAN cards will also be set up within two months, where applicants can find out their status by entering their details.

The applications will be collected by UTI-ISL and sent to the National Computer Centre of the Income-Tax department which will allot the numbers. The cards with new hologram and security features will be prepared by the company.The UTIISL is setting up a Web-based system for monitoring movement of each application till the PAN card is delivered to the applicant.

Future PAN Applicants will be able to ascertain status of their application through such Web-based query system.Get your card within a fortnight.After submitting PAN application at I-T PAN Service Centre no further action will be required on the part of the applicant. It will be ensured that the PAN card is dispatched to the applicant within a fortnight. During the initial six months it may take some more time.

Grievances arising out of errors in the PAN data will be attended to within 10 working days and wherever required new PAN cards will be issued.Requests received from PAN holders for changes in PAN data or address, however, will be processed and responded to in thirty days from the date of receipt of application.

In order to ensure quality service in a timely way the new PAN process shall follow procedures conforming to ISO 9001-2000.Role of I-T department in the new arrangement.The Income-Tax department has outsourced only a part of business process, but it will continue to own and manage the PAN databases.

As such, Income-Tax department will remain responsible for ensuring quality of services to PAN applicants under the new arrangement.In every city or town where I-T PAN Service Centers will be operational, the senior most officer of Income-Tax Department or his nominee will act as a 'local PAN facilitator', who will attend to any difficulty faced and reported by PAN applicants while interacting with I-T PAN Service Centers.
