If you have applied for an e-PAN (Permanent Account Number) but wish to cancel the application, there are a few steps you can follow to do so.

Firstly, visit the official NSDL e-Governance website and click on the “Online PAN application” link. Then, click on the “Reprint of PAN card” option and select the “Cancel PAN” option.

Next, enter your 15-digit acknowledgement number and other required details to verify your identity. Once verified, you will be able to cancel your e-PAN application.

It is important to note that once you cancel your e-PAN application, you will not be able to retrieve it or proceed with the application process. If you still require a PAN card, you will need to apply for a new one.

Additionally, if you have already made a payment for the e-PAN application, you will not be able to get a refund for it. Therefore, it is important to carefully consider whether you want to cancel your application before doing so.

In case you face any difficulties or have any questions related to cancelling your e-PAN application, you can contact the NSDL e-Governance customer service team for assistance.
