The PAN card and the Aadhaar card are two essential documents in India. The PAN card is a unique 10-digit alphanumeric number issued by the Income Tax Department, while the Aadhaar card is a 12-digit unique identification number issued by the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI). Linking these two cards is a crucial requirement imposed by the government to ensure the seamless integration of financial and identity data.
