The time it takes to get a Permanent Account Number (PAN) card varies by the method of application. You can receive an e-PAN (electronic PAN) in as little as 48 hours, or even within a few minutes, if you apply online using the Instant e-PAN facility with Aadhaar-based e-KYC. However, the physical PAN card typically takes longer to be dispatched and delivered, generally arriving at your registered address within 10 to 15 working days after your application is successfully processed by the Income Tax Department. The process may be delayed if there are issues with document verification.
