    If you have a PAN card, then it can only be blocked or canceled if any individual dies, a company, or a firm dissolves. There is a fixed process for blocking your PAN card. You can cancel your PAN card if you have received 2 PAN cards with the same identity or if your PAN card was misused by someone else, or if you unwanted loan application in your Credit reports.
