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

Corporate Address Change Requires PAN Update and Potential Jurisdiction Transfer via Specific Procedural Steps A company sought guidance on updating its jurisdiction details after changing address on the MCA portal. The response indicated that a PAN correction application (Form 49A) is necessary to update address, but may not automatically change jurisdiction. If jurisdiction remains unchanged, a separate request must be filed with the Assessing Officer through the e-filing portal, providing supporting documentation for transfer to the new state's jurisdiction.
