Last modified on January 6, 2024 by CA Bigyan Kumar Mishra

Permanent account number or PAN is a 10 digit unique number issued by tax department to the applicant. As per tax laws, a person can hold only one Permanent Account Number.

However, there are chances that you are issued two or more PAN card. This happens when your first application for a permanent account number got delayed, you re-apply for it and end up getting two permanent account number.

If you lost your PAN card, then you should apply for a duplicate card, instead of applying for a new one.

If you have received two PAN card with different number, then surrender one number to tax department. If you don’t surrender, then a penalty of Rs. 10,000 is liable to be imposed under section 272B of income tax act, 1961 for having more than one Permanent Account Number. To avoid penalty, you should immediately surrender it.
