The RPACPC 206AB Compliance Status API enables businesses to retrieve PAN-related tax information, including PAN operational status, PAN–Aadhaar linkage status, financial year, PAN allotment date, and the applicability indicator returned by the source.
Integrate tax verification information into vendor onboarding, supplier verification, accounts payable, and tax review workflows.
The 206AB Compliance Status API is part of the RPACPC Tax & Compliance Verification Suite. It accepts a PAN identifier and returns available PAN-linked information in a structured JSON response.
The API includes an aplicable_flag field that indicates Section 206AB applicability according to the configured source logic.
The API response may include the following information, depending on the response received:
PAN identifier associated with the verification request.
Name returned by the source, subject to masking policies.
Date of PAN allotment, available as a timestamp and formatted string.
Financial year associated with the verification result.
Operational status returned by the source.
Linkage status code returned by the source.
Applicability indicator returned in the API response.

RPACPC processes the request through the configured verification service.
Receive the available PAN status, Aadhaar linkage information, financial year, and applicability indicator.
Review the PAN-linked name, allotment date, operational status, and other available verification details.
Use the returned information in your tax review or verification workflow, considering the relevant financial year and applicable tax requirements.
