how to find ao code for pan card

You can find your AO (Assessing Officer) Code through the following official online resources:

• Visit the NSDL or UTIITSL PAN service websites and use the AO Code search feature by selecting your city.
• If you already have a PAN, use the 'Know Your AO' service on the Income Tax e-Filing portal. This verifies your PAN and mobile number via OTP to display the jurisdictional AO details.
• The AO Code selection depends on your taxpayer status and address: salaried individuals use their office address, while others generally use their residential address.
