The announcement comes a day after the CBDT extended the deadline for the PAN-Aadhaar linking to June 30. The policy-making body of the tax department issued an order on Tuesday extending the deadline from the current last date of March 31. The deadline for linking bank accounts and mobile phone numbers with 12 digit biometric identifier Aadhaar has already been extended indefinitely, till the five-judge constitution bench delivers its judgement on petitions challenging the validity of the biometric scheme and the enabling law.
