PAN 2.0 SOON!

Get ready for the future of taxpayer services with PAN 2.0—a revolutionary upgrade to the existing system that promises to make life simpler and smarter for everyone. Let’s explore why this could be a game-changer!

First, the new PAN cards are getting a high-tech boost with QR code integration. This means faster, hassle-free verification and access to services with just a quick scan. This aim to put an end to tedious processes and increase  efficiency.

No need for multiple IDs

For businesses, there’s big news! The PAN will now serve as a Common Business Identifier, replacing the need for multiple IDs across platforms. A single number for everything—that will hopefully completely streamline operations.

A ONE-STOP DIGITAL PORTAL

And that’s not all. A Unified Digital Portal will also be introduced—This will be a one-stop destination for all PAN-related services, from applications to grievance redressal.

ROBUST GRIEVANCE SYSTEM

What’s even better? The entire process will be completely paperless and online. There will be a big focus on a robust grievance redressal system to ensure that taxpayer concerns are addressed quickly and efficiently.

If you already hold a PAN card, you’ll be happy to know the upgrade will be provided free of cost through an easy online transition process—no paperwork required.

PAN 2.0 PROJECT COST: ₹1435 CR

The PAN 2.0 project, which has received the nod from the union cabinet, will cost 1435 crore rupees. While the exact launch date is still under wraps, the rollout is expected in the coming months.
