  3. BHAUMIK SHAH says:

    When we have to apply for the PAN/TAN if we have opted and mentioned details of PAN/TAN in INC-7 ? After Incorporation ?

  4. Jatin Patel says:

    Hi Tribhuvan Khatri.

    If you have filed form – 7 and filled AO code details. Then it doesn’t mean you have applied for PAN and TAN. You have to upload this forms at e-biz portal of gov. Unluckily this portal has not started its functioning for PAN Application. Therefore, you must apply separately in routine procedure for PAN and TAN application as of now until this functions start.

  5. Meet Jain says:

    Sir/ Madam,

    I want to know that how to apply for PAN in form INC-7. Further it seems that the amendment in the Form No. INC 7 has not been made to fulfill the requirement of the CBDT notification vide No.8/2015, Dated: April 10, 2015.

    Thanks & Regards,
    Meet Jain

    The sai notification covers only INC-7 and not INC-2 which is the incorporation form for OPC. So OPC will not be able to use this facility. This is surely an oversight and needs to be corrected.

    In firest line it is mentioned that applicant company not registered under companies act 2013 – what it means. company registered under previous act & does not obtain PAN have to apply in INC 7 & company registered under company act 2013 have to apply in Form 49A or copy of INC 7 is sufficeint to obtain PAN
    As so many times INC 7 is rejected in that case what to do

  8. Hardeep Singh says:

    Sir/Madam,

    I want to clear my point that whether the Form INC-7 is amended if it is used to apply for PAN of the company as per the CBDT notification vide No.8/2015, Dated: April 10, 2015.

    Thanks & Regards:
    Hardeep Singh
