The deactivated PAN cards violated the principle of one PAN per person, while the fake PAN cards had been allotted to non-existent persons or were issued to people furnishing false identity details. If you are unsure of the validity status of your own PAN card, it is best that you check the status, which can be done online. If you do have multiple PANs, then you will be able to find out which of them is now valid, all you need to do is to follow the process below:
