When should a company apply for PAN?

PAN should generally be obtained as part of the company’s initial statutory and financial setup after incorporation, subject to the applicable process and requirements.

Can PAN details be corrected later?

Yes. Where there is an error or a permitted change in PAN-related information, an application for correction/update can be made through the prescribed process.
