contents In this paper, we study the representation theory of the universal central extension $\mathcal{G}$ of the infinite-dimensional Galilean conformal algebra, introduced by Bagchi-Gopakumar, in $(2+1)$ dimensional space-time, which was named the planar Galilean conformal algebra by Aizawa. More precisely, we construct a family of Whittaker modules $W_{ψ_{m,n}}$ over $\mathcal{G}$ while the necessary and sufficient conditions for these modules to be irreducible are given when $m\in\mathbb{Z}_+, n\in\mathbb{N}$ and $m,n$ have the same parity. Moreover, the irreducible criteria of the tensor product modules $Ω(λ,η,σ,0)\otimes R, Ω(λ,η,0,σ)\otimes R$ over $\mathcal{G}$ are obtained, where $Ω(λ,η,σ,0), Ω(λ,η,0,σ)$ are $\mathcal{U}(\mathfrak{h})$-free modules of rank one over $\mathcal{G}$ and $R$ is an irreducible restricted module over $\mathcal{G}$. Also, the isomorphism classes of these tensor product modules are determined.
