My kid got a new passport after her old passport expired, but her PIO card has reference to old passport number.

What is the procedure to include her new passport number in the PIO card

Thanks for help

Here is the CGISF instruction for this: http://www.cgisf.org/pio/pioservices.html#hta - see the bullet before the last sentence. If you are under the jurisdiction of some other consulate (or DC embassy), check their specific instructions before applying.

You can get new passport number endorsed on PIO Card by paying fees to Indian Consulate/embassy. Why you want to pay them? Take both the passport (expired and new) and PIO card when go to India and no need pay the Indian consulate.
