My wife (OCI card holder) needs to apply for a PAN card.

She's fillled in Form 49AA but has one question about the Assessing Officer details.

The form requires Area Code, AO Type, Range Code and AO Number, and says this information is available from the ITD website, it's been difficult to get this information online.

How to identify the information needed for these details?
