The claim
More than 1 crore income tax payers linked their Aadhaar with PAN.
Original review summary
The review reports that more than 16.84 crore PAN numbers had been linked with Aadhaar as of March 2018. But it says the data did not establish how many linked PAN holders were income tax payers, so that part of the claim could not be verified.[S1]
