CBDT Mandate: Aadhaar-PAN Link for Specific Holders Due Dec 31, 2025
Link your PAN with Aadhaar by December 31, 2025. If you miss the date, PAN goes inoperative from January 1, 2026, stopping ITR filing and blocking refunds. Pay 1,000 on the e-Filing portal and link now. Some groups are exempt.
The Income Tax Department has set December 31, 2025 as the deadline to link your PAN with Aadhaar. If you miss it, your PAN will become inoperative from January 1, 2026, freezing many financial activities.
What happens if PAN becomes inoperative
- No ITR filing: You cannot file or verify your tax returns.
- Higher TDS/TCS: Taxes will be deducted at higher rates, reducing your income and returns.
- Refunds blocked: Pending tax refunds will not be processed.
- Financial limits: Issues with bank accounts, mutual funds, property deals, and KYC updates.
- Form rejection: Forms like 15G/15H for lower TDS will not be accepted.
How to link Aadhaar-PAN
- Pay fee: Pay ₹1,000 via the e-Pay Tax service.
- Link online: Use the “Link Aadhaar” option on the Income Tax e-Filing Portal.
If your PAN becomes inoperative, you can reactivate it by paying the fee and linking Aadhaar. Reactivation may take up to 30 days.
Who is exempt
- Citizens aged 80 years or above
- Non-Resident Indians (NRIs)
- Foreign nationals
- Residents of Assam, Meghalaya, and Jammu & Kashmir
Final reminder
Do not wait until the last minute. Complete the linking now to avoid a financial freeze and compliance issues in 2026.
