There's nothing to notify you about. If it goes down later, come back and we'll let you know when it's fixed.

About Protean PAN
Protean eGov Technologies, known for years as NSDL e-Governance, is one of the two agencies the Income Tax Department has appointed to process PAN applications. This is its PAN portal.
People apply for a new PAN here, make corrections to name or date of birth, reprint a card, download an e-PAN and check where an application has reached.
It gets crowded near tax filing dates and whenever a PAN-Aadhaar linking deadline approaches.

If Protean PAN isn't working
-
Wait and retry near deadlines Close to PAN-Aadhaar linking and tax dates the portal is overloaded. Wait a few minutes and retry rather than refreshing constantly.
-
For a failed payment, keep the reference A failed PAN fee is normally auto reversed. Keep the reference and check your status before paying again, so you do not apply twice.
-
Keep your acknowledgement or PAN ready Have your 15-digit acknowledgement number or PAN, name and date of birth ready before you open the page.
-
Use the correct portal Check your acknowledgement to see if it is Protean PAN or the other agency, and use that portal, so you are not on the wrong one.
-
Check the live status above If many people are reporting Protean PAN right now, it is a wider problem and not just you.
Other ways to access Protean PAN
-
Try the other official route PAN services also run through UTIITSL and the Income Tax e-filing site (for instant e-PAN via Aadhaar), so an alternate official route may work.
-
Try in off-peak hours Protean PAN is much faster late at night or early morning, away from deadline-day load.
-
Visit a PAN service centre For a stuck application, an authorised PAN facilitation centre can help in person.
