PAN Card Aadhaar Card Link Deadline

PAN card Aadhaar card link deadline has been pushed forward from its March 31 date, marking yet another reprieve for those who hadn't linked it yet. The government on Sunday extended the deadline for linking PAN (Permanent Account Number) with biometric ID Aadhaar by 6 months till September 30, as per an official statement. However, quoting of Aadhaar will remain mandatory for filing income tax returns (ITRs), following the Supreme Court order.  This is the sixth time the government has extended the PAN card Aadhaar card link deadline.  

The CBDT said there were reports that those PANs which are not linked with Aadhaar number by March 31 may be invalidated, following which the matter was considered by the government and the date extended till September 30.
