From July 1, linking of existing Aadhaar numbers with taxpayers' PAN will be mandatory. Thenew rules will come into force from July 1, 2017, the Department of Revenue has said.

The government has made quoting of Aadhaar or enrolment ID a must at thetime of application of PAN. Through an amendment to tax proposals in the Finance Bill for 2017-18, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley has made the 12-digit biometric identity system Aadhaar mandatory for filing ITRs and provided for linking of PAN with Aadhaar to check tax evasion through use of multiple PAN cards.
