The mandatory linking of your Aadhaar with your PAN is primarily done through the official Income Tax e-filing portal.
- Visit the Income Tax e-filing portal and click on the 'Link Aadhaar' quick link.
- Enter your PAN and Aadhaar numbers and click 'Validate.'
- You must pay the applicable fee (currently ₹1,000 for delayed linkage) through the e-Pay Tax service before proceeding.
- Finally, submit your request and validate with the OTP sent to your Aadhaar-linked mobile number to complete the process.
Ensure your demographic details are an exact match on both documents, or the linking will fail.
