We all know about PAN cards and how they help in financial transactions related to ITD, tax filing, and identification purposes. Therefore, it is necessary to have all the valid and appropriate information on the card. But sometimes, people didn’t oblige as per the rules unintentionally or intentionally that led to PAN card complaints or deactivation.

And if opting for the offline method, you need to reach Aaykar Sampark Kendra for your PAN grievances.
You can find more information about PAN card complaints, PAN deactivation offline & online, and how to check PAN status here.
