how can i get duplicate pan card

You can easily get a duplicate PAN card if your original is lost, stolen, or damaged. Apply online via the official portals of Protean (formerly NSDL) or UTIITSL by filling out the 'Reprint of PAN Card' request. You will need to provide your existing PAN and Aadhaar number for verification. After paying the required fee, typically around ₹50 for delivery in India, you can receive an instant e-PAN, and the physical card will be dispatched to your communication address within 15 to 20 days.
