there is no standard format for the same. one has to write a forwarding letter citing reason for cancellation of pan card and submit alongwith orginal pan card. keep an acknowledgement copy as a proof of postage to NSDL for record purpose. after about a month, one should check on the site status of such pan card.

it is mandatory for firm to file return even if there is no income. Refer to Section 139 of Income Tax Act (relevant portion) below 

 

(1) Every person,—

 (a) being a company or a firm or

 (b) being a person other than a company or a firm if his total income or the total income of any other person in respect of which he is assessable under this Act during the previous year exceeded the maximum amount which is not chargeable to income-tax,

It is clear from the above section that even if firm is not having any income it is mandatory to file ROI
