You can track the status of your PAN card application by visiting the following website:

http://www.utitsl.co.in/utitsl/site/pantracker.jsp

Why you should have a Permanent Account Number (PAN)?: A new provision relating to tax

deduction at source (TDS) under the Income Tax Act 1961 will become applicable with effect

from 1st April 2010. If the PAN is not furnished to the bank, tax at the prescribed rate or 20%,

whichever is higher will be deducted, while paying / crediting interest on deposits. However, there

is no TDS on interest earned on NRE Deposits in Rupee / Foreign currency and also on interest

earned in domestic SB & RD A/cs. For domestic term deposits, TDS will be deducted, only if the

aggregate interest exceeds Rs.10,000/- in a financial year. As per the revised rules, Form 15 G /

15 H for non deduction of tax in domestic term deposits will be valid / accepted, only if the

customer furnishes his PAN to the bank. Once the tax is deducted by the bank and paid to the

Govt. of India, (where PAN is not submitted) Bank cannot refund the amount. Hence we advise

you to obtain PAN at the earliest and communicate the same to your bank branch before tax is

actually deducted on interest payments.

Special attention - NRIs having NRO A/cs: Form 15 G / 15 H for non deduction of tax will not

be accepted in NRO A/cs. TDS at the applicable rate will be deducted while paying / crediting the

interest for all types of NRO A/cs, irrespective of the amount of interest. The prescribed rate of tax

deducted for NRO A/cs depends upon the country of residence of the depositor and the Double

Taxation Avoidance Agreement (DTAA), if any, entered into between the respective Govts.

PAN card has multifarious uses in our day to day life:

• It is a major identification document.

•For investments in primary and secondary markets.

• For opening Demat accounts and Trading accounts.

• For Mutual Fund investments.

• Mandatory for any depositor (including Non-Residents) whose receipts are subject to

deduction of tax at source
