If you're encountering a 'Exiting partner's name does not match with PAN' error when amending partnership details on the GST portal, the issue stems from a mismatch with the CBDT PAN database. The solution is to delete the existing partner's entry and then re-add them, carefully ensuring their name is entered exactly as it appears on their PAN card to pass the validation.

There is no Edit option for Exiting partner. Shall I delete and again add the exiting partner as per PAN records.

The name mismatch error happens because the details entered do not match the CBDT PAN database. You can safely delete the exiting partner's entry from the form and re-add them, ensuring the name matches their PAN card character-for-character to clear the validation check.
