Thank you Mr. Rambhia. Despite the notification mentioned by you dated 11-5-2017 above, do I still write to the jurisdictional ITO regarding this matter?

Better to inform ITO by email about her status, otherwise it would be bit difficult to reactivate her PAN.

Though not mandatory but better play safe, as most of things are automated without much human inference.
