what to do if we lost pan card

If you lose your PAN card, you must immediately file a First Information Report (FIR) at the nearest police station to prevent its misuse. Do not apply for a new PAN; instead, you must apply for a duplicate or reprint of your existing card.

• File an FIR at the nearest police station immediately to report the loss.
• Apply for a duplicate PAN card online on the Protean (formerly NSDL) or UTIITSL website.
• Use the "Request for New PAN Card or/ and Changes or Correction in PAN Data" form to apply for the reprint.
• You can track the status using the acknowledgement number.
