PAN will be equal to E-PAN-
According to the Income Tax Department, the new e-PAN card will also be considered as valid as the old PAN card, but not everyone can use Aadhaar to create an e-PAN. So in such a situation you have to take care of many things before making an e-PAN card.
10 thousand fine on two PAN cards-
Apart from this, people who already have PAN card can apply for e-PAN only. If a new PAN card is made by applying and two PAN cards are caught with you, then a fine of Rs 10,000 can be imposed under Section 272B (1) of the Income Tax Act.
It is necessary to have a valid Aadhaar card-
Apart from this, you must have a valid Aadhaar for the application. Information is sought by the Income Tax Department to get all the identity related details and complete the e-KYC. During the application for e-PAN, there is no need to fill any form nor to submit the document.
This should be like DOB-
If you are applying for e-PAN, then keep in mind whether the date of birth is in the Aadhaar card data base as DD-MM-YY. If you do not have this form then you cannot apply for it. Some old Aadhaar cards only have a year of birth. If this is the case with you, then you can update it from UIDAI's site.
Must be over 18 years of age-
Apart from this, for the convenience of application of e-PAN, it is necessary that the age of the applicant is more than 18 years. Apart from this the facility is available only to individuals and companies, Hindu Undivided Families (HUF) and partnership companies etc.
PAN card is necessary for these works.
If you do more than 2.5 lakh transactions in a year, then PAN will be required. The PAN of a business institution whose turnover is more than 5 lakhs is required.

Apart from this, PAN card is required for many other things.
