Struggling with EPF Registration? Firm's Name Not Matching PAN Card – Need Help!

armynavy
Hi, I am Nikhil. I am trying to register my new firm at the EPF website. However, when we submit all formalities online, an error message appears stating that the firm's name is not as per the PAN card name. Since our firm is a proprietor concern and the PAN is in the name of the proprietor's name. Please show the way. Is there any other link to register under EPF, or is there another way?

While making an application, if the constitution is selected as "proprietorship," then it accepts, perhaps the selection is not done properly. Another point to consider is if the DSC used is in the name of the PAN card holder, it means the establishment is a proprietorship, or it can be established with the submitted documents. However, in most places, people make this error and select something else in the constitution.

I am also getting this error. I am typing the exact name as mentioned on the PAN card, but it is showing an error that the PAN number does not match the owner's name provided.
