Dear Experts,

I had no mobile number / email_id at the time of registration of my Aadhaar Card.

Now, which number needs to be provided while linking PAN with Aadhaar as my Aadhaar Card consists of only the Aadhaar number and no mobile number? Can any alternate number can be provided while linking PAN with Aadhaar?

Quick Summary

This discussion addresses a common query about linking Aadhaar and PAN when no mobile number was initially registered with the Aadhaar card. While one expert suggests updating the mobile number at an enrolment centre is mandatory, another user shares their successful experience using an alternate mobile number for OTP verification. The consensus leans towards the possibility of using a different number, though updating it might be the most straightforward approach.

You first need to update your mobile number in your aadhaar through any aadhar enrollment center. then you can link your PAN.

In my opinion without updating your mobile number in aadhar you cannot link your PAN because it will not match with the aadhar database.

There are 2 different ways you can get your mobile number details updated:-

• By Visiting Permanent Enrolment centre. Search nearest enrolment centre by clicking on “Locate Enrolment Center” on uidai.gov.in.

• Online using Self Service Update Portal (SSUP). Click “Update Aadhaar Details (Online)” on uidai.gov.in.

@ Sabyasachi Sir, it's not mandatory!

Yes, you can definitely use it! Even, I faced the same situation and was not having any mobile number registered to my Aadhaar Card before. I completed the process yesterday: just enter your PAN number, Aadhaar Number and mobile number (Any alt) and enter the OTP. You will surely be able to link both PAN and AADHAAR. It takes approx 24 hours for the process to be completed!

There is no penalty if there is a contravention. of section 139A , then sec 272 b will be invoked.
sec 139a does not deal with linking of adhaar and pan.
