This is one of the pathetic story about Pancard. I think government is minting money in this process. There are so many in numbers who has the same kind of story to relate.
I have applied pancard in the month of April from Chennai, but am a resident of Hyderabad. At the time of applying I was told that I would be getting pancard delivered in 15-20 days at my Hyderabad residence. It was good to hear!!!
On 30th April the internet site of www.utitsl.co.in showed the status of 'Delivered'. I was happy that I would be getting Pancard soon, and also intimated my parents, watch man about the corier or post about this. This happiness didnot last longer as I had to wait till June month.
Irritated with this I enquired at chennai office about pancard, the answer was -- no we could not trace the details. Uhhh..I enquired at Hyderabad Zonal office, there they say that it may have returned undelivered. I asked, How can it be when every one was at home and our watchman is also there, How could it return back.
They asked me to give one application requesting the pancard. I gave and that day there were around 30-35 people with same kind of problem. They all have to skip the office that for this purpose. The zonal head told me that I would be getting a letter at my residence after 15 days, and if I bring that they would give me my Pancard. So I got the letter after 15 days, and today I went to the zonal office and was shocked with reply.
The zonal head asked me to pay rupees 70/- so that the pan card will be delivered from Mumbai again to their office and I can collect that after 10 days. These UTITSL people are cheating. Or who knows the government is making money under the cover of UTITSL.
I think there should be some concern shown by the Government, because we are paying taxes, we are getting pancards on our own cost. Hell with the government and there policies.
May be these UTITSL have choosen some wrong guy for courier services where there are lot of quality courier service providers. May be one more corruption story under this courier service provider.
There is nothing much I can do, but have to wait till I get my Pancard.
Thank You UTITSL.
