The Permanent Account Number (PAN) is a unique 10-digit alphanumeric identifier issued by the Income Tax Department of India to companies, firms, and other entities for taxation purposes.
A Company PAN Card, also known as Form 49A, is a physical document containing the company’s PAN number, official name, registered address, and details of the authorized signatory. It acts as proof of identity, tax registration, and financial legitimacy for a business.
According to Indian tax laws, every company must apply for a PAN card within 30 days of incorporation. The application can be completed online or offline, with required documents such as the Certificate of Incorporation and Memorandum of Association (MOA).
