Dear Professional Colleague,
CBDT:
The Central Board of Direct Taxes has introduced Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) based application procedure for allotment of PAN and TAN to corporate. Under the new process PAN and TAN will be allotted within a day. This is aimed at ensuring ease of doing business.
Similarly, a new Aadhaar e-Signature based application process for Individual PAN applicants has been made available on the portals of PAN service providers M/s NSDL eGov. Introduction of Aadhaar based e-Signature through M/s NSDL eGov in PAN application not only ensures paperless hassle free PAN application process but also seeding of Aadhaar in PAN which will curb the problem of duplicate PAN to a great extent.
Regards,
Pawan Barodiya
