how to check if pan card is active or not

You can check if your PAN card is active or not on the official Income Tax e-filing website.

• Visit the e-filing portal and navigate to the 'Verify Your PAN' service under Quick Links.
• Enter your PAN number, full name, date of birth, and a valid mobile number.
• After clicking continue, enter the OTP sent to your mobile number and click 'Validate'.
• The screen will then display the current status of your PAN, confirming if it is active or inoperative.

If your PAN is marked as inoperative, it is generally because it has not been linked with your Aadhaar card.
