The Satyam saga gets murkier. Now it has come to light that its auditor, Pricewaterhouse, furnished the company with a “wrong” PAN.

The Income Tax Department (ITD) creates Annual Tax Statement of each taxpayer using their Permanent Account Number (PAN) as identifier. The tax statement contains details of tax paid by the taxpayer himself (self assessment/advance tax) and also details of tax deducted/collected from him during the financial year.
Levy of interest on the ground of non-payment of correct amount of tax by itself can be a ground for non-acceding to the request of the assessee as the levy is a statutory one but it is another thing to say that the said factor shall not be taken into consideration at all for the purpose of exercise of the discretionary jurisdiction on the part of the Commissioner. Appellant volunteered that the securities be sold. Why the said request of the appellant could not be acceded to has not been explained. It was a voluntary act on the part of the appellant. B. M. Malani vs. CIT (Supreme Court)
Dear Friends , I found this utility on the website www.saraltaxoffice.com. They are the one who come first with this utility and above all we can use it for free. Is there a way to validate your PAN? Is there any way to know what is the name corresponding to PAN? What should I do to register at e-Filing website, as I do not know the corresponding surname, first name, etc?
Companies and individuals who do not reveal their Permanent Account Number (PAN) while receiving income from any source will be liable to pay tax deducted at source (TDS) at the maximum marginal rate of 30 per cent (plus surcharge and education cess). Under the Income Tax Act, 1961, any income payable to the assessee is liable for TDS by the person or entity making the payment. TDS rate ranges from 1 per cent to 30 per cent depending on the nature of income. The Central Board of Direct Taxes is considering changes to the Act to this effect.
The government will soon introduce biometric permanent account numbers (PAN) for income tax payers, though initially only new applicants would be brought under its net, Finance Minister P Chidambaram said on Monday.
The Income Tax department had on 26.3.2008 advised all tax deductors to invariably quote PAN in their TDS returns in all cases wherein they have deducted tax and deposited it into the government account. This has been emphasized as non-quoting of PAN results in inability to give credit to the deductees while processing their cases.
