New Delhi. Your PAN card, which has been in use since 1972, is now on the path of change. The Modi government has approved the new version of PAN 2.0 and with this, about 78 crore people of the country will now have to change their Permanent Account Number (PAN) card.

The main objective of this change is to make things easier for taxpayers. After the government’s approval, the question arising in the minds of taxpayers is whether their PAN number will also change and what will be the process of making a new card.

A QR code will be given on this card, which will contain all your information. Using this, it will become easier to pay tax or register a company or open a bank account.

What will be the new features

  • The technology of PAN card will be completely upgraded to make its use easier.

All the 78 crore people of the country who have been issued PAN cards will be sent a new PAN card by the department.

Will the old card be discontinued?

Everyone’s PAN number will remain the same and until you get the new card, you should continue to do all your work through the old PAN card.
