More than 9.3 crore Permanent Account Numbers (PAN) have been linked with Aadhaar, a senior income tax department officer said.
Of the total Aadhaar-PAN linking, which is nearly 30% of the total about 30 crore PAN holders, about three crore linkages were done in June and July.
“By 5 August, which was the last date for filing income tax returns (ITRs), over 9.3 crore PAN-Aadhaar linkages have been registered by the I-T department,” he said.
