For KYC norms, furnishing Aadhaar card and Permanent Account Number (PAN) details have become important today. In case of a bank account - be it any service like account opening, applying for debit card or credit card, availing loans, or opting for savings account, current account, fixed deposits, recurring deposits, etc - you will have to furnish your PAN and Aadhaar card details. The PAN card is issued in a laminated format, which has information like date of birth, name, age and 10-digit number. While, Aadhaar number is a 12-digit random number issued by the UIDAI (“Authority”) to the residents of India.
