The Income Tax Department has mandated the use of PAN on the return of income on all tax-related transactions. PAN is an integral aspect when it comes to tracking the transactions and monitoring the inflow and outflow of an individual’s money. The PAN acts as a database for all individual transactions like the tax collected at source (TCS)/tax deducted at source (TDS) credits, income tax payments, return on gift/investments/wealth, bank account opening, applying for credit or debit card, large amount financial transactions, etc.
