Need for the Document

The government has made linking PAN and Aadhaar numbers mandatory under current regulations. While the linking is a process for legal requirements, the process also benefits the government and taxpayers.

Information which might help

• The Aadhaar number holds all the financial information of an individual. From big money transfers to UPI, the card holds all details. And linking PAN with Aadhaar will help IT departments track and note all the transactions of taxpayers to present fraud or tax evasion.
• Linking PAN with Aadhaar also helps in spotting people with multiple PAN cards. As residents of India only have one Aadhaar, the liking of PAN will further track that Individual only carries one PAN card in their name.
• PAN and Aadhaar will also simplify the income tax return process and verification. Since Aadhaar holds all the information about an individual including biometric verification, the linking will initiate a faster return filing process.
  

Other uses of the Document/Certificate

A Pan card is used as proof of Identity.
