Why link PAN with Aadhaar?

Linking your PAN with Aadhaar is mandatory under the Income Tax Act. An unlinked PAN is marked inoperative, which will affect your tax filings and financial transactions.

If your PAN is not linked

• Your PAN will become inoperative
• Higher TDS will be deducted
• You will not be able to file your ITR

Exempt from linking if you are

• An NRI
• Not a citizen of India
• Aged 80 years or above during the previous financial year
• A resident of Assam, Meghalaya, or Jammu & Kashmir
