New Delhi: The government has made quoting of Aadhaar mandatory for filing income tax returns (ITRs) as well as obtaining a new PAN. If you have not yet done the PAN-Aadhaar linking, you have less than 10 days for doing so.

The CBDT has extended the deadline for the PAN-Aadhaar linking to June 30. This is the fifth extension given by the government for individuals to link their Permanent Account Number (PAN) with their biometric ID (Aadhaar).

The earlier deadlines for linking the two databases were July 31, August 31 and December 31, 2017, with the last being March 31 this year.
