How to update PAN details on an existing Zerodha account?

NSE does not allow PAN to be updated in trading accounts. You can only update your PAN in your demat account. You must then close your existing trading account and open a new trading and demat account with your new PAN.

Zerodha charges ₹25 + 18% GST as account modification charges. The process takes up to 10 working days after Zerodha receives and verifies your documents.

How does the PAN update process work?

Update your PAN in your existing demat account and close your trading account.
Open a new trading and demat account with your new PAN.
Transfer your holdings from your old demat account to your new demat account through closure cum transfer.
