how to replace damaged pan card

To replace a damaged PAN card, you should apply for a reprint through the official websites of the Income Tax Department's service providers, Protean (formerly NSDL eGov) or UTIITSL. On the portal, select the 'Reprint of PAN Card' option, which is used when there are no changes to your data. Enter your PAN, Aadhaar number, and Date of Birth, then pay the required fee (around ₹50 for domestic delivery). After successful submission, a duplicate physical PAN card will be printed and dispatched to your registered address.
