Why do you need to Link your Aadhar with PAN Card?

The Income Tax department has extended the deadline to link PAN card to the Aadhaar to 1st April 2020. This is the eighth time the deadline has been extended. After the Supreme Court announced its verdict about the Aadhaar in 2018, the 12-digit identification number is mandatory for filing your income tax returns and also to acquire a Permanent Account Number (PAN) card.

From Now onwards Income Tax Department made it compulsory for all the taxpayers to link their Aadhar with PAN card so that further process of income can be processed.

If there is a failure to do so till April 1, 2021, then your PAN will become inoperative i.e. you can’t be able to use your PAN card for any financial transaction where PAN card is compulsory (opening of bank A/c).

After April 1, 2021, the one can’t be able to file ITR without linking the first two.

What Points Should be Considered while linking Aadhar with PAN card?

  1. The name of the applicant on both the documents (Aadhar & PAN) should be the same; however minor changes can be further processed.
  2. You must have available the mobile number registered with the Aadhar.
  3. Date of Birth on both the documents (Aadhar& PAN) should be the same and in the correct format (DD/MM/YYYY).

    What is PAN?

    PAN means Permanent Account Number. A PAN card contains a unique ten-digit number, which is a combination of alphabets and numerical. PAN card is used for keeping track of every transaction of a taxpayer. The PAN is a unique identification number that is only issued to the taxpayers and acceptable and shared by everyone, everywhere all over India according to the Income-tax act, 1961. This is why two taxpayers can’t have the same PAN number. The Income-tax department of India runs the PAN system to keep a close eye on every taxpayer and their transactions which they held against their PAN number. It is a computer-based system and it always assigns a different combination of alphabets and numerals to every individual. The Income-tax department of India issues the card containing a unique identification number under the supervision of the central board of Direct Taxes (CBDT). It is also used for an individual’s identification card but it is not considered as proof of nationality because the Indian government issues PAN card to foreign investors and visa holders as well.
