How do I know if my PAN is inoperative?
Enter your PAN, name and date of birth above. The check shows whether it's operative and linked with Aadhaar. An inoperative PAN means TDS at higher rates and refunds held.
What is the penalty for linking PAN with Aadhaar late?
₹1,000 under section 234H, paid through the e-Pay Tax challan before the link request. The PAN becomes operative again after linking, usually within a few days.
Why does my PAN–Aadhaar link keep failing?
Usually because the name, date of birth or gender differs between PAN and Aadhaar. One of them has to be corrected first, then the link request goes through.
