State Bank of India has informed its account holders that September 30 is the last day to link to link their PAN-Aadhaar card. Those who fail to link PAN with Aadhaar Card will make their PAN inoperative till the date the Aadhaar number is intimated or linked.

India's largest lender had tweeted about it earlier adding, "The linking of PAN with the Aadhaar is mandatory. PAN will be rendered inactive and cannot be quoted for conducting specified transactions if PAN and Aadhaar are not linked before September 30," the tweet further added.

The Act reads, “If a person fails to intimate the Aadhaar number, the permanent account number allotted to such person shall be made inoperative after the notified date in the manner as may be provided by rules."
