how can i get my pan card if lost

If your PAN card is lost, you should first lodge a complaint with the nearest police station to prevent misuse. To get a replacement, you can apply for a "Reprint of PAN card" online through the official portals of Protean (formerly NSDL) or UTIITSL. You will need your PAN, Aadhaar number, and date of birth to fill out the application and pay the nominal fee. An e-PAN is often issued instantly, and the physical card is dispatched to your registered address within a few weeks.
