PAN Verification API for Instant, NSDL-Backed KYC Checks

PAN Verification starting at just ₹1.2. Verify a PAN card instantly against NSDL records with Aadhaar-linkage status, DPDP-compliant consent, and a tamper-evident audit trail built in.

How it works

How Our PAN Verification API Works in Three Steps

01

Submit the PAN Number

Send a single input, the 10-character PAN, to the verification API. No OTP, no document upload, and no live user action required to start the check.

02

Instant NSDL Lookup

Hypersign queries live NSDL-sourced records to confirm the PAN's validity, holder name, date of birth, category, and Aadhaar-linkage status in real time.

03

Get Verified Results Instantly

Receive results as a typed JSON response in the W3C Verifiable Credentials standard, with consent captured and an audit trail recorded automatically.

Verify PAN · NSDL Lookup

PAN Verification API Backed by Live NSDL Records.

One input, a user's PAN number, returns name, date of birth, PAN type (individual or company), Aadhaar-linkage status, and validity status. No sales call needed to see what a real PAN card verification online response looks like, run it in the sandbox first.

Aadhaar-PAN Linkage Check

Confirm Aadhaar-PAN Linkage in the Same Call.

Every PAN verification API response includes whether the PAN is linked to Aadhaar. Use it to flag unlinked or inoperative PANs before onboarding, without a separate lookup or a second vendor.

Data Privacy · Selective Disclosure

Collect Only What You Need.

A raw PAN card verification API call returns a full name and date of birth, even when your application only needs to confirm the PAN is valid and belongs to an individual. Hypersign uses Selective Disclosure and Zero-Knowledge Proofs to verify that claim without exposing the underlying name, date of birth, or PAN category.

Consent Management · Audit Trail

Audit Trails That Stand Up to Compliance Reviews.

Every PAN verification begins with explicit customer consent. Hypersign records each consent event and verification in a tamper-evident audit trail, providing independently verifiable proof of when consent was granted and verification occurred. Verification data is automatically deleted after processing to reduce unnecessary data retention.

Regulatory Frameworks

Income Tax Act, 1961NSDL / Income Tax Dept. RecordsIndia DPDP Act, 2023

Stated plainly: PAN Verification checks records sourced from NSDL / Income Tax Department data, issued under the Income Tax Act, 1961. Unlike Aadhaar eKYC, PAN verification is a stateless record lookup, no AUA/KUA-style licence is required on your side to consume it. The service runs on infrastructure hosted entirely in India (GCP), and verification data is not retained beyond what's needed to complete the check and generate the audit record.
