Change in Regitered Office: How to get the Jurisdiction details on Income Tax portal changed

[Mohit Agarwal]

Hello,

I have a query about changing of jurisdiction details of company from one state to another state. So, basically i have a doubt that the address is updated on MCA portal but the old jurisdiction is showing on Income Tax Portal. So, what is the process of changing that whether by changing the address in the PAN of the company by PAN correction form is enough or to do something else.

Updating the company’s address on the MCA portal does not automatically reflect on the Income Tax Department’s records. To change the jurisdiction on the Income Tax Portal, it is essential to first file a PAN correction application (Form 49A) with the updated address and supporting documents. Once the address is updated in the PAN database, it usually triggers a jurisdictional change; however, in some cases, the jurisdiction does not update automatically.

If the jurisdiction remains unchanged even after PAN correction, a separate request must be made to the current Assessing Officer (AO) or through the e-filing portal under the “Raise a Request” section, selecting “Change of Jurisdiction.” This request should be backed with documentary proof such as updated PAN, MCA master data, and board resolution if necessary. Following approval, the file will be transferred to the appropriate AO of the new state.

AI Summary

Change of Jurisdiction: update company PAN address via Form 49A to prompt AO transfer, or raise an e filing request. Change of jurisdiction for income tax records requires filing a PAN correction (Form 49A) with updated address and supporting documents; this typically triggers reassignment to the appropriate Assessing Officer. If jurisdiction does not update automatically, raise a formal request via the e filing portal or approach the current Assessing Officer with the updated PAN, MCA master data and board resolution to obtain transfer to the AO of the new state.
