PAN card photo size — make it online for free
When you apply for a new PAN card on the Income Tax e-filing portal or through NSDL/UTIITSL, you need a passport-style photograph in a specific size and file weight. Getting it wrong means your application gets stuck at the upload step.
BharatEdit outputs a 25×35 mm PAN photo (and the matching pixel dimensions) with automatic white background removal. The file is compressed to stay within the portal's KB limit — no Photoshop needed.
