On verification of PAN records with the Income Tax Authorities mismatch has been found in respect dealers whose names are given in the following lists. For instance, (1) in some cases either the PAN itself is structurally invalid or not found in the Database of the Income Tax Authorities, (2) in some cases the PAN is structurally valid but found to be allotted to a separate person or entity.
So, all dealers whose names appear in the lists have to submit correct PAN information at the time of submission of online returns.

Guidelines for submitting information:

• PAN should be given exactly the same way as it appears in the PAN card issued by the Income Tax Authority to the Proprietor (in case of a proprietorship firm) or to the firm in all other cases.

• It is reiterated that in case of proprietorship firm, only the PAN of the proprietor or proprietress, as the case may be, should be given. PAN of any other person like husband/ relative of the proprietress or lawyer/ accountant of the proprietor will be considered as incorrect information and result in mismatch report.

• If the constitution of business is anything other than proprietorship, PAN of the firm has to be submitted. Submission of personal PAN of the partner for partnership firm or Karta of HUF or Director of limited company would be considered as incorrect information and result in mismatch report.

• Please submit the information on first name, middle name or surname maintaining the same manner and order as had been done to the Income Tax Authorities in application for PAN.

Please take utmost care to submit correct information. Submission of incorrect information may lead to discontinuation of online services.
