How to Change Pan Details In E Filing?

Pan card is a very important document that every citizen must have. My sister got a job two months back and went to the bank to create an account for herself. But she was told that her name’s spelling in Aadhar card and PAN card are different. On checking both she realised that her name’s spelling in her PAN Card is actually incorrect and was asked by the bank officials to get it corrected or else she won’t be able to create an account in any bank. She however did the e filing PAN card update easily online so let me tell you the steps she followed so that you all can benefit.

I have always known the importance of PAN Card and thank god my PAN card details are all correct. I understand that most of the people will panic a lot or will ask a lot of people and even will be ready to visit a lot of places to get it corrected but if you update the details online, it is going to be easier. Here are the steps to do it:

1. Go to the official website of NSDL E-Governance or click on 

1. Select the option PAN under the Services Section

2. Select Apply under the Change/Correction in Pan Data section

3. Click on the Changes or Correction in existing PAN data/Reprint of PAN Card option provided under the ‘Application Type section

4. Click on Category and then select the correct category of the person

5. Provide the details like Dob, mail id and mobile number

6. Provide the Captcha and click on Submit

7. You will be provided with a token number in the mail id and asked to proceed

8. You will be asked to submit few documents so click on Submit scanned images through e-Sign on NSDL e-gov and proceed

9. Provide the details requested like parents’ name and Aadhar number or more and click on next.

10. Update your status if required

11. Update the relevant documents as mentioned in the site

12. Pay the fee through netbanking, credit/debit card

13. An acknowledgement slip will be generated that must be printed and sent to the NSDL e-gov office along with all the documents that you uploaded. Paste two photographs and sign it. It is better to write Application for PAN change on the envelope and also write the acknowledgement number to make the process more easy.

The process might look lengthy or tough but trust me, once you enter the site, you will automatically know what to do exactly. You can also approach a cyber cafe to let the men there do it for you.

 My sister was told that within 15 to 20 days she will get it and on the 17th day she did. So just be sure that it takes less than a month to get the updated PAN card.

I hope my answer will make the e filing PAN card update super easy for you now.
