UIDAI Online Aadhaar Card Help

Aadhar Card to PAN Card Link: An Aadhaar card contains a unique 12-digit number issued to every citizen in India by the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI). It acts as an identification number that helps access the cardholder’s details from the government database, such as biometrics and contact information. Any individual, irrespective of age and gender, being a resident of India, can enrol to obtain an Aadhaar number voluntarily. The enrolment process is free of cost. Once an individual enrols, their details are permanently stored in the database. One person cannot have multiple Aadhaar numbers.

If you hold a PAN and are eligible to get Aadhaar or already have an Aadhaar number, you must inform the income tax department. You can do this by linking PAN to Aadhaar. If you fail to do PAN-Aadhar linking, your PAN will become ‘inoperative’. link aadhar to pan card

In Hindi:

आधार कार्ड में भारतीय विशिष्ट पहचान प्राधिकरण (यूआईडीएआई) द्वारा भारत में प्रत्येक नागरिक को जारी किया गया एक अद्वितीय 12 अंकों का नंबर होता है। यह एक पहचान संख्या के रूप में कार्य करता है जो सरकारी डेटाबेस से कार्डधारक के विवरण, जैसे बायोमेट्रिक्स और संपर्क जानकारी तक पहुंचने में मदद करता है। कोई भी व्यक्ति, चाहे वह किसी भी उम्र और लिंग का हो, भारत का निवासी होने के नाते, स्वेच्छा से आधार संख्या प्राप्त करने के लिए नामांकन कर सकता है। नामांकन प्रक्रिया नि:शुल्क है। एक बार जब कोई व्यक्ति नामांकित हो जाता है, तो उनका विवरण डेटाबेस में स्थायी रूप से संग्रहीत हो जाता है। एक व्यक्ति के पास कई आधार नंबर नहीं हो सकते हैं। link aadhar card to pan card

यदि आपके पास पैन है और आधार प्राप्त करने के योग्य हैं या पहले से ही आधार संख्या है, तो आपको आयकर विभाग को सूचित करना होगा। आप पैन को आधार से लिंक करके ऐसा कर सकते हैं। यदि आप पैन-आधार लिंकिंग करने में विफल रहते हैं, तो आपका पैन ‘निष्क्रिय’ हो जाएगा।
