How do you verify PAN?

Call this API to verify a PAN provided by your customer. Here is a quick explanation of the request params—

• pan is the PAN value. It may belong to categories like Person, Company, Trust, Government, Firm, etc.

• consent indicates if you have collected consent from your customer. To get a successful verification, it must contain Y or y.

• reason is the explanation of why you are requesting for PAN from your customer. It should be explained in 20 characters or more.

NOTE: While the implementation of consent and reason cannot be enforced by Setu, we recommend collecting explicit consent from your customers and also explaining to your customers the reason why you are verifying their PAN.
