procedure to link your Aadhaar with mobile

Procedure to link Aadhaar with Mobile number
1. Dial the toll-free
helpline number issued for IVR (Interactive Voice Response) i.e. 14546.
2. When you call toll-free
number 14546, you will be asked to select either of the two options i.e Indian
resident or NRI.
3. If you are an Indian resident,
give you consent by pressing 1 to link your Aadhaar with mobile number.
4. In this step, you will be
asked to provide your 12-digit Aadhaar number and confirm the same by pressing
1.
5. Now it will generate an
OTP, which you will receive on your mobile phone with validity for 30 minutes.
6. Here you need to enter
your mobile number.
7. After this, you are asked
to give your consent to your operator to extract your details including name
and photo and date of birth details from your Aadhaar database.
8. Now re-verification of your
mobile number is done through the IVR which mentions the last four digits of
your mobile number.
9. In case the number is correct,
you need to enter the OTP received via SMS on your mobile phone.
10. Now you need to press 1 to
complete the re-verification process for Aadhaar with mobile number.
Airtel and Vodafone customers can link their Aadhaar with mobile numbers using IVR facility as Indian Resident across all states. However, if you are an Idea customer, then your Aaadhaar Id should be of the same circle as the mobile number to complete the re-verification process for Aadhaar with mobile number. Reliance Jio users are not required to go through this process as the company takes customer’s Aadhaar numbers for activating their SIM cards. Those on corporate networks also do not need to link Aadhaar with mobile number.
Remember, as per the recent
government directive, all the existing telecom subscribers have to mandatorily link
their Aadhaar with mobile numbers by March 31, 2018.
