  1. Facts

    The portal needs the fee payment to be verified before it accepts the link request. If the payment is not yet verified, the user manual says wait 4 to 5 working days.

  2. Provisions and law

    • Sec 430, Income-tax Act 2025 (old Sec 234H)Fee of ₹1,000 for intimating Aadhaar after the prescribed date
    • Sec 262, Income-tax Act 2025 (old Sec 139AA)PAN and Aadhaar linking requirement continues under the new Act

  3. Analysis

    Check that the challan was paid under Other Receipts (500) and the correct sub-type, for the same PAN. Example: fee paid on Monday through net banking; the link request on Tuesday shows payment not found; trying again the following week works. If it still fails after a week, confirm the head on the challan and raise a grievance.

  4. Conclusion

    1. Check the challan for PAN, minor head and sub-type
    2. Wait 4 to 5 working days
    3. Retry the Link Aadhaar request
    4. If it still fails, raise a grievance on the portal with the challan
