26 July 2025 Here’s what’s going on with TAN changes due to name and address updates:

---

### Change in TAN due to Name and Address Change:

* **If only the Company Name changes:**

* Usually, the TAN **remains the same**.
* You need to intimate the Income Tax Department about the name change using **Form 49B (Correction Form)**.

* **If the Address changes but stays within the same city and RCC jurisdiction:**

* TAN **does not change**.
* Intimation can be made via **Form 49B** for updating address details.

* **If the Address changes and the new address falls under a different RCC (Regional Computer Centre):**

* You **need to apply for a new TAN**.
* The old TAN becomes invalid, and a new TAN will be allotted.

---

### Why did you get a new TAN even though the city remained the same?

* Sometimes, the Income Tax department’s RCC boundaries might have changed.
* Or the address details may have caused system to treat it as different jurisdiction.
* It could also be a processing error or procedural update by the department.

---

### What you should do:

* Verify the RCC jurisdiction for the updated address.
* If it is indeed the same RCC, you can write to the department or your TAN service provider to clarify.
* For corrections, always use **Form 49B** to update details without requesting a new TAN unnecessarily.

If you want, I can help draft a letter or guide you to the official forms for correction. Would you like that?
