Kind Attention PAN holders! While linking PAN with Aadhaar, demographic mismatch may occur due to mismatch in:

• Name

• Date of Birth

• Gender

To further facilitate smooth linking of PAN & Aadhaar, in case of any demographic mismatch, biometric-based authentication has been provided and can be availed of at dedicated centers of PAN Service Providers (Protean & UTIITSL). For details, please check the website of Service Providers.

To update PAN details, users can visit:

• Protean at: www/onlineservices.nsdl.com/paam/endUserRegisterContact.html
• UTIITSL at: http://www.pan.utiitsl.com

To update Aadhar details, users can visit:

• UIDAI website at: https://ssup.uidai.gov.in/web/guest/update

Once the mis-match is resolved users can link the Aadhaar and Pank cards using https://eportal.incometax.gov.in/iec/foservices/#/pre-login/bl-link-aadhaar.

PAN holders who have not linked their cards to Aadhaar can do so till June 30 by paying a fee of Rs 1000. If the user fails to link then the PAN card will become invalid from 1st July 2023.
