Linking your PAN with UAN is now essential for PF withdrawal and any mismatch in name, date of birth or other personal details is likely to lead to problems for you. Besides disparity of PAN and Aadhaar details, there can be other mistakes that an individual might want to get corrected.
If you are looking to correct your PAN details, it can be done online as well as offline. Here's your primer on how to go about it.
Online method
Visit NSDL Online by clicking here:
Select 'PAN correction' option from the 'application type' dropdown, and fill out your personal details.
After submitting, you will be redirected to a new page. A token number will be generated and displayed to the applicant before filling the form. This token number would also be sent on your email address provided in the application for reference purpose. On the top of the page, check the option 'Submit scanned images through e-Sign' and under that mention the PAN number you want to correct.
Fill out your personal details carefully. For changes or correction in PAN data, fill all mandatory fields (marked with *) of the form and select the corresponding box on left margin of appropriate field where correction is required.
If the application is for re-issuance of a PAN card without any changes in PAN related data, fill all fields in the form but do not select any box on left margin.
Following this fill out your address details. The address provided will be updated in the Income Tax Department database and will be used for further communication.
On the bottom of the page you will find an option to surrender the additional PANs acquired by you inadvertently. Leave this out.

Offline method:
To make corrections in the PAN offline, reissuance or surrender, an individual needs to submit the PAN correction form with the nearest NSDL collection centre and also file a letter with the jurisdictional Assessing Officer.
Click here to download the form. The fields in this form are similar to the online form.
Points to be noted:
- The duly signed acknowledgement with required documents should reach the NSDL within 15 days of submitting the online form.
- PAN correction form is used for multiple purposes, i.e. to make correction in PAN, reissuance of PAN without correction and to surrender additional PAN, so it has to be filled out carefully.
- Checkbox on the top left of the corresponding fields should be marked and checked properly, since selecting the wrong box would create more problems for you. For instance, if you are applying for reissuance of PAN without any correction and check mark the box against your name or birth date, or surrender PAN option, your application type will be different from what you intend to submit.
