Answer 2

no.IT Act does not requier PAN details of landlords of employees

Answer 3

This is not mandatory and you need not; it is not your responsibily nor your company's to ensure that your landlord pays his taxes and is not cheating.

You will have a rental agreement right - this is a valid legal document and can be produced to your firm. I do not think any lanlord will give his / her PAN number to anyone outside the IT Dept.

What your firm is asking for is unnecessary and illogical.
