The government of India made it essential to have a PAN card for all people who need to be assessed for income tax and file the return under the Income Tax Act 1961 in order to effectively check on tax erosion and evasion on various high net worth transactions.
The PAN card is developed according to a special system, and different codes are provided by the government for different types of assessments. As a result, it’s much easier to tell the difference between a real and a fraudulent pan card.
