Day before yesterday I got a call from a person telling me that He wants to apply for 40-50 persons who are working in a Pune in different small companies. All of them are residing in rural area which is far away from Pune Now they want all these Pan Cards at a single address for the convenience
He also further mentioned that, Company is not ready to give a letter mentioning that the person is employed with us.
Now my queries are
1) What are the solutions in this case ?
2) Can I mention my name as a Representative Assessee (RA) in PAN Application Form i.e. in Form 49A ? If Yes, then What are my responsibilities Or Is there any kind of Risk Factor ?
3) I have heard that by mentioning my name & address (along with proof) in place of RA, that PAN CARD will be delivered to RA’s Address. Is this Safe or Correct to mention my name as an “RA” in all abovesaid PAN Application Form
4) If it is possible to mention my name & address in place of RA, then by whom the PAN Application Form must be signed ? By the applicant or by the RA ? Because, in Instructions , it is written that RA must sign the application
Please refer Section 160 of IT Act,1961. I doubt, you does not fall under any of the category to call yourself as representative assesee. So, you cannot act as Representative assesee in this case.
