PAN & TAN Registration
Get your business tax-ready with hassle-free PAN and TAN registration through Kanoons.
Every business entity in India, whether it’s a company, LLP, partnership, or sole proprietorship, must obtain a Permanent Account Number (PAN) for income tax compliance and banking. In addition, if the entity is liable to deduct tax at source (TDS), it must also apply for a Tax Deduction and Collection Account Number (TAN).
PAN is a unique 10-digit alphanumeric code issued by the Income Tax Department for identifying taxpayers.
TAN is a 10-digit alphanumeric number mandatory for businesses that deduct or collect TDS/TCS.
At Kanoons, we provide end-to-end support in applying for PAN and TAN for your business, including document verification, application filing, and follow-up with the Income Tax Department.
