Failure to link PAN with Aadhaar by December 31 may lead to PAN deactivation, impacting income tax filing, refunds, banking transactions, investments, and KYC compliance. The Income Tax Department has urged taxpayers to complete the PAN–Aadhaar linking process to avoid penalties and financial disruption. As per the April 3, 2025 notification, PANs allotted on or after October 1, 2024, must be linked by December 31, 2025, while others face penalties and possible deactivation if delayed further.
