You can link your Aadhaar with your PAN card using the Income Tax Department's official e-filing portal or via SMS.
- Online method: Visit the Income Tax e-filing portal, click 'Link Aadhaar' under Quick Links, enter your PAN, Aadhaar number, and name exactly as per Aadhaar. Validate the details using the OTP sent to your Aadhaar-registered mobile number.
- SMS method: Send a text message in the format UIDPAN <12-digit Aadhaar> <10-digit PAN> to 567678 or 56161 from your registered mobile number.
A late fee of INR 1,000 is applicable for delayed linking. Ensure your details match across both documents to avoid failure.
