You can track your PAN card application status by visiting the official portals of Protean (formerly NSDL) or UTIITSL and entering your 15-digit acknowledgement or coupon number.
Alternatively, you can use quick self-service methods:
- Send an SMS in the format 'NSDLPAN <15-digit acknowledgement number>' to 57575.
- Call the TIN call center at 020-27218080 and provide your acknowledgement number for an update.
Once your card is dispatched, track the delivery status on the India Post website using the consignment number you receive.
