3. Details of RCC wise pendency in the above process has been informed to 0/o the CIT(Admn. & TPS) through official email system. Looking to alarming increase in pendency it is requested that all out efforts should be made by the RCCs to timely resolve duplicate PAN requests marked during allotment of PAN process to ensure minimum public grievance.
