Answer – As per the latest guidelines issued by the Indian government, linking your Aadhaar card to your Hindu Undivided Family (HUF) Permanent Account Number (PAN) is not mandatory. Aadhaar-PAN linkage is currently only required for individual taxpayers and not for HUFs.
The process of linking Aadhaar to PAN for individual taxpayers can be done online through the Income Tax Department’s e-filing portal (https://www.incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in/). However, as of now, there is no specific requirement to link Aadhaar to HUF PAN.
It’s important to note that HUFs are considered as a separate entity for income tax purposes and have their own PAN, separate from the PANs of individual members of the HUF. Therefore, it’s not necessary to link Aadhaar to HUF PAN, as per the current guidelines. However, it’s always recommended to stay updated with the latest notifications and announcements from the Income Tax Department or consult with a qualified tax professional for specific and up-to-date information on tax-related matters for HUFs or any other tax-related queries.
