  • PAN structure is as follows: AAAAA9999A: First five characters are letters, next 4 numerals, last character letter
  • Each assesse is uniquely identified by the PAN
  • If the PAN does not follow the above structure, then the PAN will be shown invalid
  • The fourth character of the PAN must be one of the following, depending on the type of assesse:
C — Company
P — Person
H — HUF(Hindu Undivided Family)
F — Firm
A — Association of Persons (AOP)
T — AOP (Trust)
B — Body of Individuals (BOI)
L — Local Authority
J — Artificial Juridical Person
G — Government

 

  • The fifth character of the PAN is the first character
    • (a) of the surname / last name of the person, in the case of a "Personal" PAN card, where the fourth character is "P" or
    • (b) of the name of the Entity/ Trust/ Society/ Organisation in the case of Company/ HUF/ Firm/ AOP/ BOI/ Local Authority/ Artificial Jurdical Person/ Govt, where the fourth character is "C","H","F","A","T","B","L","J","G".
