We quote herewith India's Finance Minister in his
budget speech on February 29, 2000 has emphasised the
importance of PAN.
" In keeping with international practice, it is
proposed to promote a common business identification number
to be used by different agencies and departments. In our
context, the Permanent Account Number of income-tax would
be that instrument. I hope that in near future, the PAN
card will replace the ration card as the primary identification
document for a sizeable number of people".
This quote explains the importance of PAN.
