Answer 1

There is only one way is left for you now.

Please go to your nearest Police Station and lodge a complaint. Get a copy of FIR ( first information report ) from the station.

Then go to your income Tax Office, along with a covering letter, describing the circumstances, you lost your PAN card, and request to provide a replacement card.

Get a Form 49-A, there and fill all the details. Pay the prescribed fee. And submit it to the Officer concerned, enclosing the copy of FIR.

After verification, in a reasonable time, you will get a duplicate PAN card. Keep it safe.

Good luck.
