How an e-PAN Card is different from a PAN Card?

The Permanent Account Number (PAN) card consists of a unique 10-digit number assigned to individuals who are eligible to pay taxes on their income. It serves multiple purposes, including financial transactions and identity verification. An ePAN card is the digital version of the traditional PAN card issued by the Income Tax Department. It functions as a valid proof of identity and can be used for various purposes, including KYC (Know Your Customer) verification, financial transactions, and income tax filings. Additionally, there is an Instant ePAN card that can be downloaded from the internet within 10 minutes, making it a convenient option for those who need a PAN card urgently. Both the ePAN card and the physical PAN card share the same PAN number.
