Deadline for linking Aadhaar with PAN is
December 31, 2017
The government has made
it mandatory to link Aadhaar cards with bank accounts, permanent account
numbers (PAN), income tax return (ITR), social security schemes and even mobile
phones. If one does not have the 12-digit Unique Identification Number issued
by the Unique Identification Authority of India, he will have to now get it
made in order to avail all these facilities. In fact, the government recently
extended the deadline for obtaining Aadhaar for availing government schemes and
subsidies by three months to December 31. The extension is, however, only for those
who are yet to apply for Aadhaar, an order issued by the Ministry of
Electronics and Information Technology said. As many as 135 schemes (of 35
ministries) including the free cooking gas (LPG) to poor women, kerosene and fertilizer subsidy, targeted public distribution system and Mahatma Gandhi
National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) will be covered by the
extension.
Be it linking of Aadhaar
card with PAN, mobile SIM cards or bank accounts, there are different deadlines
specified in each case. Read

sim card with your Aadhar card then your number is going to disconnected very soon.
So if you don’t want to loose your mobile number then make sure that you link
your sim [Airtel, Idea, Vodafone Any] with Aadhar before last date.
In case, you have purchased sim card with biometric verification
then you don’t have to go through this verification process. The linking
process is very simple and free of cost and can be done at any retailer shop.
Also you don’t have to give your id card photocopy or photographs to retailer
as this process is based on biometric verification which gets completed online
so all you need a aadhaar card, sim card along with owner of aadhaar card as
this process includes biometric verification so you will have to verify your
fingerprints at retailer shop so your linkage can be authenticated. Read
