The card is issued by the Income Tax Department of India under section 139A and the income tax act 1961. The number is used for various financial transactions in India. To fill ITR and claim depreciation, a taxpayer in India must have this card.
TIN: The full form of TIN is Tax Identification Number. Commercial Tax Department, irrespective of the state you belong to issues the card for business entities. The number is used to register your business under VAT. If you have started your business then you need to apply for the TIN to pay VAT.
TAN: TAN is Tax Deduction and Collection Account Number. Business, individuals, and organizations who claims TDS or TCS are identified via the TAN number.
