Employees who have failed to link their PAN card with Aadhaar – Corporate Office instruction to deduct 20% Income Tax on the total salary – BSNLEU writes to the Director (Finance) demanding to keep the order under abeyance and provide one more opportunity for linking PAN card with Aadhaar..

The Corporate Office has issued letter to the circles for the deduction of Income Tax at 20% of the total salary (ignoring the standard deduction and other rebates), in respect of the employees who have not linked their PAN card with their Aadhaar. This will create a big financial strain on the employees who have failed to link their PAN card with their Aadhaar. In this connection, BSNLEU has written a letter to the Director (Finance) today. BSNLEU has stated that, the Management has failed to create sufficient awareness among the employees that, PAN card should be compulsorily linked with Aadhaar. Hence, BSNLEU has requested the Management to keep the Corporate Office instruction for deduction of 20% Income Tax on the total salary, under abeyance. Further, BSNLEU has also requested the Management to provide one more opportunity for the employees for linking their PAN card with Aadhaar.
