An assessee may have been allotted multiple PAN Card. The multiple PAN card may have been allotted to the Assessee for many reasons i.e. He may have applied multiple times for allotment of PAN and every time he has been allotted a PAN card or may have inadvertently allowed multiple PAN card by Income tax Department, NSDL or UTI. Assessee who have more than one PAN should immediately Apply for surrender of additional PAN number(s) allotted to them as having more than one PAN may make them liable to a penalty of Rs. 10,000/-

Assessee can apply for surrender of PAN card by two methods.

1. Manually –

a. Write a letter to this effect to the assessing officer under whose jurisdiction you have been filing your returns. The letter must contain details such as your name, contact details, details of the PAN card to be retained, details of the duplicate PAN card(s) which you need to surrender, etc. Keep  the acknowledgement copy of the letter that you have filed with the I-T department, stating that you are surrendering your additional PAN. That is sufficient as proof of surrender and no additional confirmation from the I-T authorities is required. On receipt of the acknowledgement, there is no need for you to wait for intimation from the income tax department considering that the PAN submitted has now been cancelled by them. The acknowledgment copy of the letter submitted will more than solve the purpose.

b. Manually Fill the Form No. 49A for change/Correction in correction in PAN and submit the same at your nearest UTI pan centers or NSDL TIN Facilitation centers.

2. Online

a. Visit Income Tax Department website and go to its ‘Surrender Duplicate PAN’ option. Enter the relevant details of duplicate Pan and the one which you need to retain. Submit the form.

b. You can also surrender the pan online  by filing a application “change in pan data ” through UTI pan centers or NSDL TIN Facilitation centers.In application fill spare pan number in Last row of the Form.

    SIR,PLEASE TELL INCOME TAX DEPARTMENT/MINISTRY OF FINANCE FOR SOME ISSUES WHICH ARE MAKING PROBLEM TO DO WORK.SECTION 234E IS VERY HARMFULL BECAUSE THERE IS NO APPEAL FOR THAT SECTION,I THINK WE SHOULD CHALLENGE IT,EVERY SECTION INCLUDING SECTION 302 OF INDIAN PENAL CODE (WHEN SOMEONE CHARGED AGAINST THIS SECTION HE/SHE CAN APPEAL IN HIGHER COURT ON GROUND BASIS)CAN BE CHALLENGED BUT UNFORTUNATELLY WE CAN NOT APPEAL AGAINST SECTION 234E.THERE IS LAST DATE FOR E-FILLING OF ETDS RETURN FOR GOVT.DEPTT IS 31ST OF QUARTER ENDING AND FOR OTHER THAN GOVT.IS 15TH WHY IS IT ? I THINK IT SHOULD BE RELAXATION FOR ONE MONTH.
