UTIITSL: Change/Correction in PAN
The Permanent Account Number (PAN) is one of the most important documents which is an identity proof. Therefore it is imperative that the information provided on the PAN card is correct or accurate. However, there are cases where the information printed on the PAN card is false or incorrect. In such cases, the applicants can apply for a change/correction in their PAN card through the UTIITSL portal.
There are many cases where individuals have more than one PAN. For instance, if an individual loses his/her PAN card and wants to reissue, but there are discrepancies in the address. In such cases to avoid the hassle involved in applying for re-issuance with an address change, sometimes a person may apply for a new one and end up having two PAN cards and thus has to surrender the duplicate PAN.
