Hello there,

If you have lost your Permanent Education Number (PEN) or equivalent identification number used for academic records, follow these steps to retrieve it:

1. Check Previous Academic Documents

• Look for the PEN on your previous mark sheets, certificates, or report cards.

• It is often printed at the top or bottom of the documents.
  
  2. Contact the Respective Institution

• Reach out to the school, college, or board where the number was issued.

• Provide necessary details such as:

  • Name

  • Date of birth

  • Class and year of passing

  • Roll number (if available)
    
    3. Visit the Education Board/Department Website

• Many education boards provide an option to retrieve the PEN through their official website.
  
  

• Log in using your registered credentials or use the "Forgot PEN/Registration Number" option.
  
  4. Contact the State/Board Helpline

• Call or email the helpline of the respective education board for assistance.

• Provide verification details to authenticate your identity.
  
  5. Submit a Written Request (if required)

• In case of offline retrieval, you may need to submit a written application to the education board or institution, along with identity proof.
  
  6. Check the DigiLocker Portal (if applicable)

• If your academic records are linked to DigiLocker , log in and check for the relevant documents that might have the PEN listed.
