how to download e pan card

You can download your e-PAN card from the official portals of the Income Tax Department, Protean eGov Technologies Ltd (formerly NSDL), or UTIITSL. The method varies slightly by portal:

• For the Income Tax portal, visit the Instant e-PAN section and enter your Aadhaar number to verify with an OTP sent to your Aadhaar-linked mobile number, which allows the download.
• For the Protean (NSDL) portal, you can use either your PAN number or the Acknowledgement Number along with your date of birth, and then complete an OTP verification via mobile or email.

The downloaded e-PAN PDF is typically password-protected by your date of birth in DDMMYYYY format.
