Yes, I am a taxpayer, and it is mandatory to link your PAN card with your Aadhaar card. I was not aware of this rule, but one of my friends told me about this, and I immediately did whatever was needed because the deadline is approaching faster.

    I obtained my PAN card before 1st October 2024 using my Aadhaar enrolment ID, so I can link my PAN card with the Aadhaar card before 31st December 2025, because that is the deadline for individuals with a similar situation to mine. However, for all the other PAN cardholders, the deadline to link PAN-Aadhaar was 30th June, 2023. Not to worry, they can still link their cards, but by paying a penalty of Rs 1000.

    Yes, it is very important to link your PAN card with your Aadhaar card because it gives a clear picture of your financial position and prevents fraud. It is necessary for every citizen, whether female, male, or children. Link them before the deadline, or else the authorities will cancel your PAN card, and you may have to go through the whole process to make a new PAN card or validate the old one.

    As of my latest knowledge, an individual must link their Aadhaar card with their PAN (Permanent Account Number) or else the card becomes inoperative.

    You do have to link your PAN card with your Aadhaar card. There is a possibility that your cards might already be linked. You can check that by visiting the official website and entering your PAN and Aadhaar number, and then clicking on the "View Link Aadhaar status" button. You will then be able to check if your PAN card is linked to your Aadhaar card or not.

    It is mandatory to link your PAN card to an Aadhaar card. If you don't link your PAN card to your Aadhar card before the deadline, then your PAN card will become inoperative, and because of this, you might not be able to file ITR or claim refunds. Any pending refunds will not be processed or issued to you.
