m applying for surrender from last 6 month, but till now not surrendered due to linked
what if PAN is not linked within specified time period. and applied for new PAN after first PAN became in-operative ..
Can I Do so??
Yes, You can apply it new one but there are practical issues like Changes Pan information in Bank data, GST registration issues (If it applies) as you know GST registration is a Pan based registration and some more issues will come after receipt of new Pan. As per My View Kindly Link the Pan before due date rather than applying for new one.
