What is PRAN and PRAN Kit?

On successful registration, a PRAN (Permanent Retirement Account Number) will be allotted to the subscriber. A PRAN Kit containing PRAN card, Subscriber details (referred as Subscriber Master List), and an information booklet is sent along with the T-Pin and I-Pin to the associated nodal office. The PRAN Card is a document with PRAN, subscriber�s name, father's name, photograph and signature/thumb impression. This card proves the completeness of information in the CRA system. A copy of the card is required for Tier II activation and also for subsequent contribution in Tier II account. The Subscriber Master List shows all the information as provided by the subscriber in his / her application and accordingly captured in CRA system. A subscriber may verify the correctness of the information submitted for registration by looking at the Subscriber Master List.
