PAN Card Tips: You can download an e-PAN card in minutes, no need to go anywhere..

The importance of PAN cards has increased a lot nowadays. Now from filing an Income Tax Return to opening a bank account, starting a business, and buying and selling property, it has become an essential document. It would not be wrong to say that today's financial work is almost impossible to do without a PAN card. If your PAN card is lost, you can get upset. But there is nothing to panic about.

The Income Tax Department has given the facility to PAN card holders to download electronic PAN cards. Therefore, if your PAN card is lost, you can comfortably download an e-PAN card in a few minutes sitting at home. The good thing is that most financial institutions accept e-PAN cards. A PAN card is a 10-digit alphanumeric number issued by the Income Tax Department, while e-PAN is a virtual PAN card that can be used anywhere for e-verification.

Take care of your PAN card.
However, the Income Tax Department always appeals to PAN card users to keep it safe and not share information related to it with unknown people. Cases of fraud related to PAN cards are now increasing rapidly. Many times such cases have come to light where other people take loans using someone's PAN card or misuse it for other purposes.
