10 July 2012 I have applied PAN for One of Korean Staff (on 08/08/2011) whose Surname is two character which is considered as INITIAL / SPECIAL CHARACTER in income tax data base, which is why his PAN is pending for more than One Year.

Now he has to apply for VISA extension but authority is not allowing him for extension with out PAN and he gets only two months to get his PAN.

Kindly suggest how do i get PAN for him.

10 July 2012 Dear Sir

Thank you for your reply.

We have contact various authorities like Karvy (processor of PAN), NSDL, Pune (040-23388765).

But they are saying that his Surname is special Character ("UM") and it is not reflating in IT Database and hence it has to add in data of IT, which they have requested Delhi (IT) where all such procedure are done but it is still pending.
