  1. Relief For Taxpayers: CBDT Extends PAN, Aadhaar linking by 3 Months to 31 December'19 In a relief to taxpayers, the Central Board of Indirect Taxes has extended the deadline to link PAN with Aadhaar to December 31, 2019. Earlier, the last date was September 30, 2019. This notification is issued for the taxpayers who have not linked their PAN with their Aadhaar. As per the Tax Administration, the PAN which will not be linked with the Aadhaar by 31.12.019 shall become inoperative and therefore, it cannot be used for any financial transaction. However, the government is yet to notify the implications of inoperative in case PAN is not linked with Aadhaar. "The CBDT granted another 3 months extension to link the Aadhaar with PAN. As per the recent amendment by the Finance (No. 2) Act, 2019, if a taxpayer does not link his PAN with Aadhaar number by the due date then the PAN of the taxpayer shall be deemed to be inoperative. A taxpayer will not be able to quote his PAN if it becomes inoperative. The dept. has not yet prescribed how an inoperative PAN shall be made operative again. Thus, to avoid any inconvenience which may cause to the taxpayer, the board has extended the cut-off date, says CA Naveen Wadwa. If the individual's PAN becomes 'inoperative' it will be treated as if the person is not holding the PAN and he would be not entitled to conduct and financial transactions where it is mandatory to enter the PAN details.

As section 139 AA (2) of the Income Tax Act, every person having PAN as on July 1, 2017, must intimate his or her Aadhaar number to tax authorities. Moreover, Aadhaar linked with PAN enables taxpayers to verify their returns through OTP sent to their phone number at the time of ITR Filing.
