If not done, a fine will be imposed. Earlier the last date of PAN card and Aadhaar linking was set to 31 March 2022. However, the last date has now been extended by a year. People can now link their PAN-Aadhaar cards till 31 March 2023.

But there is a rule. People who will link their Aadhaar and PAN cards from 31 March 2022 till 30 June 2022 will have to pay a fine of Rs 500. A double fine of Rs 1,000 will be charged to people who will consider linking their Aadhaar and PAN cards after 30 June 2022.
