PAN
A new structure has been devised for the PAN
(Permanent Account Number). The format of the
PAN is AAASNnnnnC, where S indicates status
of the assessee (refer Annexure D of AIS SRS
V2.0 for codes), N is the first letter of the last
name / surname, AAA indicates a 3 letter
series, nnnn is a 4 digit running number within
each series and C is a check digit for security
and verification. PAN is the unique identification
of the assessee in AIS as well as in other
systems
