Linking PAN and Aadhaar has now become mandatory for all taxpayers, otherwise, your PAN card may become invalid.
Why is PAN-Aadhaar linking necessary
Nowadays, a PAN card is required for every important task, whether it’s banking, filing taxes, or making investments. Aadhaar is the biggest proof of your identity. The government wants both to be linked to prevent fraud and maintain a transparent tax system. If PAN and Aadhaar are not linked, your PAN may stop working.
What will happen if the deadline is missed
If you don’t link them by the deadline, your PAN will become inactive. This means you will not be able to file income tax returns, many banking transactions may be stalled, and investment-related activities may also be affected. Not only that, in some cases, higher TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) may be deducted, leading to further losses. Besides, you may face significant difficulties in buying and selling property, taking loans, and conducting large transactions.
