1. What is PAN and Why it Matters in Imphal

PAN (Permanent Account Number) is a 10-digit alphanumeric identifier issued by the Income Tax Department. It is mandatory for: filing ITR, opening bank accounts, buying or selling property above ₹10 lakh, fixed deposits above ₹50,000, GST registration, company incorporation, and most financial transactions above specified limits.

In Imphal, with its active Government and administration and Handloom weaving (Manipuri silk and cotton) sectors, businesses and individuals regularly encounter PAN requirements — for vendor registrations, banking, and regulatory filings. An invalid or inoperative PAN can block critical transactions.
