TWO PAN CARDSS

A user sought advice on how to proceed when a client possesses two PAN cards: one from before marriage and another applied after marriage, linked to Aadhaar. The older PAN has been used for five years of income tax returns. The user needed guidance on resolving this to apply for GSTN, specifically asking if visiting the ward office for cancellation would work for the Aadhaar-linked PAN. Following advice to contact the jurisdictional AO to surrender the new PAN and demonstrate the use of the old one for returns, the user confirmed the application was accepted at the ward office.
