Government has extended the deadline for linking of Permanent Account Number (PAN) with Aadhaar by four months. The deadline has been extended till 31st of December this year which was to end today.

The Supreme Court is also hearing petitions challenging the government’s decision on Aadhaar and has posted the matter for next hearing in November. Due-date for filing Income Tax Returns and various reports of audit has also been extended till 31 of October 2017.
