Instant PAN through Aadhaar – How to apply for instant PAN?

Instant PAN through Aadhaar – How to apply for instant PAN?

Raviraj Parekh February 18, 2020

Income Tax has launched the facility of issuing Instant PAN card through Aadhaar. This facility is free and available on the Income Tax e-filing website. It is a completely paperless process with the issuance of e-PAN card nearly real-time. The e-PAN card issue via this method holds similar value as a physical PAN card. This card contains a QR code. QR code holds complete information about PAN card such as Name of the holder, DOB, Father’s name as well as biometric. In order to get Instant PAN card all you need is Aadhaar card and linked mobile number.

This facility is introduced to ease the process of the PAN card issue. It is inline with the Budget 2020 announcement of issuance of instant PAN card online. In this post, I will share complete information about Aadhaar based instant PAN card and step by step process to get Instant PAN card online.

What is Aadaar based Instant PAN Card?

Aadhaar-based instant PAN allotment service is to allot PAN on a nearly real-time basis. You just need to input your Aadhaar number which is issued by UIDAI. This Aadhaar card should not be linked with any other PAN. On submission of Aadhaar e KYC details will be verified with UIDAI and Income Tax database for the issuance of Instant PAN card. As this PAN card is generated in electronic format it is also known as e-PAN card.

e-PAN card is generated in PDF format. If your Aadhaar is linked with e-mail ID you will also get an e-mail about the issuance of e-PAN. It is a free facility available on the e-filing portal of Income Tax.

Prerequisite for using this facility

  1. The applicant should have a valid Aadhaar which is not linked to any other PAN.
