PAN 2.0: Under PAN 2.0, holders of Indian PAN cards can obtain a reprinted card featuring a QR code for Rs 50. The tax department will deliver the new card to the registered email address. Taxpayers may update their PAN information in income tax records without charge before requesting a reprint.
After completing any necessary corrections, the updated PAN card with QR code will be sent electronically to the registered email address, says an ET report. It's important to note that the Income Tax Department has been issuing PAN cards with QR code for some years now, but in case your PAN card was issued before that, you can request for a reprint with a QR code.
It is essential to identify your PAN card's issuing authority before requesting a reprint. The income tax department has designated two organisations for PAN-related services: Protean (previously NSDL e-governance) and UTI Infrastructure Technology and Services Ltd (UTIITSL).
The issuing agency details can be found on the reverse side of your current PAN card, which will determine where to submit your reprint request for a QR-coded card.


How to get PAN Card reprint with QR Code


Here's a detailed procedure to obtain a PAN card reprint through Protean's (previously NSDL) online portal.
  1. Begin by accessing https://www.onlineservices.nsdl.com/paam/ReprintEPan.html
  2. Input your PAN, Aadhaar (applicable for individuals), and date of birth on the displayed page. Select appropriate boxes and press 'Submit'.
  3. Upon submission, verify your partially masked details as maintained by the income tax department on the subsequent page. Choose your preferred OTP delivery method - mobile, email or both. Confirm dispatch to the registered communication address and select 'Generate OTP'.
  4. Enter the received OTP within 10 minutes of generation and validate it.
  5. Post validation, proceed to payment. The fee for a QR-coded PAN card reprint is Rs 50. Accept the service terms and submit.
  6. Complete the Rs 50 payment on the next page. Save the acknowledgement receipt generated afterwards, as it enables e-PAN download from NSDL's website after 24 hours.
  7. The physical PAN card will be sent to your registered address, typically arriving within 15-20 days.
