28 September 2019 The present case relates to a senior citizen earning pension income and Income from Other Sources.
However, due to inconvenience of his lack of finger prints, he has failed in generating his AADHAAR card multiple number of times.
Since income tax filing mandates the necessity of AADHAAR number of the assessee, how can the above mentioned senior citizen file his ITR?
Looking forward to a response at the earliest.

Thank you.

29 September 2019 Thank you for responding to my query gentlemen.
But my doubt still prevails.
I tried filing the assessee's ITR yesterday I. e. On 28.09.2019 but it failed. The reason for failure it mentioned that an assessee needs to mention his Aadhaar number for filing his ITR.
The requirement of linking PAN with Aadhaar is not yet mandatory.
However since my client doesn't even have an Aadhaar card, the issue is thus, of concern.
Kindly clarify the same.
Thank you.
