Aadhaar - PAN Linking Deadline is extended to 31st August, 2017



We have seen in our earlier post Step by Step Process of Linking Aadhaar Number to PAN that if you have Aadhaar Number, it is mandatory to link it to PAN and mention the same in your tax returns filed on or after 1st July, 2017.

Today, the Income Tax Department relaxed it with a press release today by making the linking your Aadhaar Number with your PAN Process OPTIONAL for the purpose of your IT Return e-filing till 31st August, 2017. However, it is mandatory to quote your Aadhaar Number in your Income Tax Returns and the actual linking process can be done subsequently, but any time before 31st August, 2017. However, the returns will not be processed until the linkage of Aadhaar with PAN is done.
