how to find lost pan card

To find your lost PAN card, the first step is to apply for a duplicate or a reprint of the card. You can do this online by visiting the official websites of Protean (formerly NSDL eGov) or UTIITSL, where a nominal fee will apply for the physical card. Alternatively, you can download a legally valid e-PAN instantly from the Income Tax e-Filing portal using your Aadhaar details. For your security, it is highly recommended to file a Police Complaint (FIR) regarding the loss before applying for a duplicate card.
