No, only those shareholders holding 5% or more shares in the company. In that case PAN is mandatory. In case of company, CIN and PAN both is mandatory.

dear sir mine is a govt company and shareholders are holding single share my consultant is saying PAN is mandatory for each shareholders please tell me for govt company rule of 5% is same or different
I think, PAN is not mandatory if a person is physically hold shares of that government company. Please also check what your company article says about that.
If XBRL is applicable on your company then PAN is mandatory for shareholders holding 5%, because I was faced the same.
