Pan Card 2.0: In November, the government announced the launch of the PAN 2.0 project. Under this project, users can now easily get e-PAN cards. The new PAN card will be different from the old card because a special QR code has been added to it. In this article, we will tell you how and where to apply online for a new PAN card.
Two agencies authorized for PAN card
The government has authorised two agencies to issue new PAN cards namely Protean e-Governance Technologies Limited (formerly known as NSDL) and UTI Infrastructure Technology and Services Limited (UTIITSL). If you need a reprint of your PAN card with QR code, check the details on the back of your PAN card to know which agency to contact.
