You can find your PAN card Area Code, which is part of the Assessing Officer (AO) Code, by using the official NSDL, UTIITSL, or Income Tax e-Filing websites. The AO Code determines your tax jurisdiction based on your address and the type of taxpayer you are.
- Visit the NSDL or UTIITSL website and search for the AO Code details by selecting your city from the list.
- Alternatively, use the 'Know Your AO' feature on the Income Tax e-Filing portal by entering your PAN and registered mobile number.
