Shortly before now, when not all people had an Aadhaar card, then if a person applied to make a PAN card, then they were given the right to fill the Aadhaar card enrollment ID. In such a situation, all those candidates who wanted to issue a PAN card on the basis of an Aadhaar card enrollment ID before the Aadhaar card was issued could easily get a PAN card by applying. But now this process has been stopped and now it is necessary to have an Aadhaar number to get a PAN card, otherwise the candidates are not given a PAN card.
For the information of the readers, let us know that Aadhaar enrollment ID is the ID which is given to the candidate while applying for an Aadhaar card. This ID is a special ID of 28 digits which is temporarily released so that government work is completed using this ID till the Aadhaar card number comes. The PAN card could be obtained until some time ago using this enrollment ID, although now the Central Board of Direct Taxes has changed this rule and now it is necessary to give a real Aadhaar number to make a PAN card. At the same time, all those candidates or PAN card holders who have obtained PAN card using Aadhaar enrollment ID have also been made mandatory to replace this enrollment ID with Aadhaar number before 31 December 2025.
Why is this change done?
This important decision has been taken by the Finance Ministry and the Central Board of Direct Taxes for the convenience of PAN card holders. Know that currently most of the citizens of India have a valid Aadhaar card number available. In such a situation, the Aadhaar card enrollment ID is not considered valid for PAN card, due to which it has now been made mandatory to provide the original Aadhaar number instead of PAN card enrollment ID to PAN card holders.
The main objective of this important decision is to prevent the creation of a duplicate PAN and prevent the possibility of fraud by using enrollment ID to ensure the validity of the PAN card and make the entire process transparent.
