where can i apply for pan card online

You can apply for a PAN card online through three authorised government portals:

• The Income Tax e-Filing Portal, which offers Instant e-PAN for individuals with a valid Aadhaar and linked mobile number.
• The NSDL (Protean eGov Technologies) portal, using Form 49A for Indian citizens.
• The UTIITSL portal, which also facilitates new PAN applications and requests for correction or reprint.

Online applications are generally faster, paperless, and allow for easy status tracking.
