How To Link Your Axis Bank Account With Aadhaar Card Number

Have you linked your Aadhaar - the 12-digit personal identification number issued by the UIDAI (Unique Identification Authority of India) - with your Axis Bank savings accounts already? The UIDAI, the authority that issues Aadhaar card, has said linking of UID (Unique Identity Number) with PAN, bank account and mobile SIMs, among others, is mandatory and deadlines are "valid and lawful" as of now. Bank accounts have to be linked to Aadhaar by December 31. A five-judge bench of the Supreme Court, led by Chief Justice Deepak Mishra, is expected next week to issue an interim order in the matter. Axis Bank, the country's third largest private sector bank, has opened multiple channels to enable its customers to link their Aadhaar with the bank accounts, according to its website.

These are internet banking, SMS, ATM, branch and website, the Axis Bank website noted. Axis Bank has shared different steps on its website - axisbank.com - for its customers to link their Aadhaar with bank accounts. Some of these are listed below, as given on the Axis Bank website:
