28 June 2017 Hi,

I 'm really having a tough time in getting my pan to aadhar linked. My name is "Srivathsan Ravindran" and my PAN and Aadhar reflects the same. But my linking was failing.

When i checked the Income tax website i see my name is mispelled at name as per pan field. Instead of "Srivathsan" it is "Srivatshan". I sent a request to Income tax people and they said my name is incorrect in PAN database.

So i tried correcting my name in PAN database and they have come back saying the below

Your request for 'New PAN card and/or Change/Correction in PAN Data' cannot be processed as PAN holder details provided by you in the application do not match with PAN holder details in the Income Tax Department (ITD) database. A letter dated 23-Jun-2017 communicating the same is being / has been dispatched to you. For clarifications contact TIN Call Centre at 020 - 27218080.

I'm stumped now. Not sure what to do. Any advice here would be helpful.

Thanks,

Srivathsan

28 June 2017 I already applied but they came back saying they cannot proceed since my data mismatches with the one in income tax database. I'm in a fix now.
