What is PAN Verification?
PAN (Permanent Account Number) verification is the process of checking the validity and details of a PAN card issued by the Income Tax Department of India.
PAN verification helps confirm: the PAN number is valid and active, the name associated with the PAN, whether the PAN is linked to Aadhaar, the type of PAN holder, and the issuing income tax ward.
PAN verification is essential for KYC processes, financial transactions, income tax filing, and regulatory compliance. Every person entering into a financial transaction above a certain threshold must quote their PAN.
