    Validating PAN (Indian Format)

    Hi All,

    Here is a method to validate PAN in Excel. The rules for validation are as follows:


    • Length should be 10
    • First 5 character should be text [A-Za-z]
    • Next 4 should be number
    • Last character should be text [A-Za-z]


    and the formula will be

    =AND(LEN(A1)=10,SUMPRODUCT(--(--(ISNUMBER(MID(A1,{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10},1)+0))={0, 0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0}))+SUMPRODUCT(--(CODE(MID(UPPER(A1),{1,2,3,4,5,10},1))>64))=16)

    More solutions are welcome

    There is always a VB solution, a UDF (user defined function) in this case...

    Code:
    Function IsPAN(S As String) As Boolean
      IsPAN = S Like "[A-Za-z][A-Za-z][A-Za-z][A-Za-z][A-Za-z]####[A-Za-z]"
    End Function
    For those reading this who are unfamiliar with UDFs, they are easy to install and use. To install it, simply press ALT+F11 to go into the VB editor and, once there, click Insert/Module on its menu bar, then copy/paste the above code into the code window that just opened up. That's it.... you are done. You can now use IsPAN just like it was a built-in Excel function. For example,

    =IsPAN(A1)

    I just noticed that your formula will "false match" these characters...

    [\]^_`{|}~

    as well as almost all the characters with ASCII (technically, ANSI) values above 126 if they appear anywhere within the first 5 or the 10th character positions. I would note that the UDF that I posted earlier works correctly for these characters.

    @ Rick,

    Thanks for checking all the possibilities.

    Here is the updated one.

    =AND(LEN(A1)=10,SUMPRODUCT(--(--(ISNUMBER(MID(A1,{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10},1)+0))={0, 0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0}))+SUMPRODUCT((CODE(MID(UPPER(A1 ),{1,2,3,4,5,10},1))>64)*(CODE(MID(UPPER(A1),{1,2,3,4,5,10},1))<91))=16)

    This slightly shorter formula (using two less function calls) also appears to work...

    Rick,

    As you know you can shorten 2nd SUMPRODUCT(--ISNUMBER with COUNT,

    COUNT(--MID(A1,{6,7,8,9},1))

    Another one with less functions,

    =AND(COUNT(MID(A1,{6,7,8,9},1)+0)=4,COUNT(FIND(MID (UPPER(A1),{1,2,3,4,5,10},{1,1,1,1,1,999}),"ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"))=6)

    EDIT:

    Using by a tilde "~" could avoid UPPER function,

    =AND(COUNT(MID(A1,{6,7,8,9},1)+0)=4,COUNT(SEARCH("~"&MID(A1,{1,2,3,4,5,10},{1,1,1,1,1,999}),"ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"))=6)

    Hi

    There is one more requirement, 4Th Character should be P for Individulas, C for Company & so on.

    So how can we check that & also whether we can give output with error instead of say True or False.

    EG. Length should be 10, First 5 character should be text, Next 6-9 character should be number, Last character should be text, 4th character should be either of P,H,F,A,T,B,L,J,G.

    Thanks & Regards

    For those reading this who are unfamiliar with UDFs, they are easy to install and use. To install it, simply press ALT+F11 to go into the VB editor and, once there, click Insert/Module on its menu bar, then copy/paste the above code into the code window that just opened up. That's it.... you are done. You can now use IsPAN just like it was a built-in Excel function. For example,

    =IsPAN(A1)

    This should account for the requirement you posted about...
    Code:
    Function IsPAN(S As String) As Boolean
      IsPAN = S Like "[A-Za-z][A-Za-z][A-Za-z][ABFGHJLPTabfghjlpt][A-Za-z]####[A-Za-z]"

    Hi

    I wanted to function like this..
    Code:
    Function ISPAN(inData As String)
    Dim i As Integer
    Dim Result As String
    
    If Len(inData) <> 10 Then
    ISPAN = "Total Character is " & Len(inData)
    Exit Function
    End If
    
    If Mid(UCase(inData), 1, 1) Like "[A-Z]" Then
    r1 = ""
    Else
    r1 = "Char1 is not Text,"
    End If
    
    If Mid(UCase(inData), 2, 1) Like "[A-Z]" Then
    r2 = ""
    Else
    r2 = "Char2 is not Text,"
    End If
    
    If Mid(UCase(inData), 3, 1) Like "[A-Z]" Then
    r3 = ""
    Else
    r3 = "Char3 is not Text,"
    End If
    
    If Mid(UCase(inData), 4, 1) Like "[P]" Then
    r4 = ""
    Else
    r4 = "Char4 Should be P"
    End If
    
    If Mid(UCase(inData), 5, 1) Like "[A-Z]" Then
    r5 = ""
    Else
    r5 = "Char5 is not Text,"
    End If
    
    If Mid(UCase(inData), 6, 1) Like "#" Then
    r6 = ""
    Else
    r6 = "Char6 is not Number,"
    End If
    
    If Mid(UCase(inData), 7, 1) Like "#" Then
    r7 = ""
    Else
    r7 = "Char7 is not Number,"
    End If
    
    If Mid(UCase(inData), 8, 1) Like "#" Then
    r8 = ""
    Else
    r8 = "Char8 is not Number,"
    End If
    
    If Mid(UCase(inData), 9, 1) Like "#" Then
    r9 = ""
    Else
    r9 = "Char9 is not Number,"
    End If
    
    If Mid(UCase(inData), 10, 1) Like "[A-Z]" Then
    r10 = ""
    Else
    r10 = "Char10 is not Text,"
    End If
    
    Result = r1 & r2 & r3 & r4 & r5 & r6 & r7 & r8 & r9 & r10
    
    If Right(Result, 1) = "," Then
        Result = Left(Result, Len(Result) - 1)
    End If
    
    If Result = "" Then
        ISPAN = "OK"
            Else
        ISPAN = Result
        End If
    End Function
    This works fine but it is very lengthy can we shortn same by looping, I am not expert in VBA

    Thanks for all support.
