Aadhaar-PAN link last day: How to link PAN with Aadhaar number online

Today, March 31, 2021 is the last day to link the Permanent Account Number (PAN) to Aadhaar number. If you fail to meet the Aadhaar PAN link deadline today, then your PAN will become invalid.

In simple words, if you don’t link your PAN with Aadhaar by today, March 31, 2021 you will be liable to pay a penalty of up to Rs 1000.

The Finance Bill 2021 stated, “234H. Without prejudice to the provisions of this Act, where a person is required to intimate his Aadhaar number under sub-section (2) of section 139AA and such person fails to do so on or before such date, as may be prescribed, he shall be liable to such fee, as may be prescribed, not exceeding one thousand rupees, at the time of making intimation under sub-section (2) of section 139AA after the said date.”
