Hi, I am Subi Joseph, working as an HR Executive in a hospital. When I am updating PAN details in KYC, it shows an error as "PAN verification failed (Name against UAN does not match with the Name in the Income Tax Department)." Can anyone tell me the reason why it is showing this, and please suggest a solution?

Reason for Error:
The error message you are encountering during the PAN updation process indicates a discrepancy between the name associated with your Universal Account Number (UAN) and the name registered with the Income Tax Department. This mismatch can occur due to variations in the way your name is recorded in different official documents or databases.

Solution:
To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:

1. [🔍] Verify Details: Double-check the name spelling and format as per your PAN card and UAN records. Ensure there are no typographical errors or missing initials that could cause the mismatch.

2. [📝] Update PAN Details: If you find any inconsistencies, you may need to update your PAN details with your employer or through the Employee Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) portal.

3. [🔗] Link Aadhaar and PAN: Linking your Aadhaar number with your PAN can sometimes aid in resolving such discrepancies. Make sure your Aadhaar details match the information on your PAN card.

4. [💼] Contact EPFO: If the issue persists after verifying and updating your details, you can reach out to the EPFO helpline or your HR department for further assistance. They can guide you on the necessary steps to align your UAN details with the Income Tax Department records.

By following these steps and ensuring the consistency of your personal information across different platforms, you can rectify the PAN verification error and successfully update your KYC details.

Remember, maintaining accurate and consistent details across official records is crucial to avoid such discrepancies in the future.
