PAN Lite API
Get the registered name for a valid PAN in a lightweight check, built for name matching during onboarding and bulk PAN validation at scale.
Overview
What the PAN Lite API does
PAN Lite returns the name registered against a PAN and nothing more.
The narrow scope is the point. Where you only need to confirm a PAN belongs to the person who gave it to you, pulling a full record collects personal data you have no use for and must then protect.
