Pan card

Others 739 views 6 replies

Dear Members,

This query is regarding a partnership firm where I am a partner.

We don't have a copy of the PAN Card right now, but we want to file a income tax return. Since e-filing is made compulsory right now we need to register the same on www.incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in. But while registering on the same, we are getting an error stating "invalid date of formation". The date has been taken as per partnership deed i.e. 26/10/1997 but since right now we are not having the PAN Card copy we are unable to know the exact date of formation as per the PAN.

What shall I do to obtain the date of formation as per the PAN. I also check on the said website for under "Know You PAN". The matter is very urgent as 31st July is nearing and the return needs to file return before that date, since we are giving first priority for the same. We can apply for the duplicate PAN card later.

Awaiting for the reply.

you should call the efiling helpline nos. or write a mail to them. you can also give an application to your ITO telling him the facts and he would help tou.
If u have other details you can find it in know your pan
Check your documents that had submitted by you to Tin Nsdl
I think pan card can be dispatched to you within 20-25 days,if you have applied pan today then I think you can get it before 31st July . So please wait for your pan card

We have applied for the PAN somewhere in 2002 (don't remember the date). At that time Income Tax was doing the PAN allotment (not NSDL nor UTI). So when I inquired with Income Tax they gave some different date i.e. 01/04/1979. The date as per partnership deed is 26/10/1997 but for which the efiling website says invalid date of formation while registering on the same. And the date given by the income tax department is 01/04/1979. This date is also not accepted by efiling website. Till last year we were filing manually and we quoted date of formation as 26/10/1997.

What if I apply for correction form by giving the partneship deed and the date as 26/10/1997, will they accept the application? Won't they ask for the previous date of formation which i exactly don't know as per PAN.? Will I get a new PAN at least by 20th July?

Awaiting for the reply.

You can check the computations of previously filled returns. There is an option in there of date of incorporation if u have filled it. Hope it may be useful to u.
