23 May 2017 Jurisdiction of the Assessing Officer is the geographical area for which Assessing Officer can assess requests. It is typically associated with the PAN or Permanent Account Number. Permanent Account Number (PAN), as the name suggests, is a permanent number and does not change during lifetime of PAN holder. Changing the address or city, though, may change the Assessing Officer. Such changes must, therefore, be intimated to nearest IT PAN Service Center or TIN Facilitation Center for required correction in PAN databases of the Income Tax department. These requests will have to be made in a form for Request For New PAN Card Or/ And Changes In PAN Data.
