Recently when I shifted home more permanently I online changed my address in my Aadhar card. I wanted this to reflect in PAN as well and was wondering how to go about it when I landed on an
online by NDSL which allows you to use your Aadhar address details to update your PAN address details.

Welcome Screen on NDSL. |
- When you click on NDSL online address change link you should see a simple form which asks for your PAN number (AAAAANNNNA) and a 12 digit Aadhar number (NNNNNNNNNNNN) and your email and mobile number. Note that the mobile number needs to be linked to Aadhar card to make use of this service.There is a captcha too be navigated.
- This leads you to a page that with your permission generates an OTP. You enter the OTP which is sent to your mobile number by UADAI (Aadhar).
- Your address details from Aadhar database is populated in the next page, which you can verify (you can not change the details though) and click the "verify" button.
- The following page ask for another OTP, this time sent by NDSL to both your mobile phone and to you email address (the details that you entered on the first page). This is to validate the mobile number and the email address.
- Once you enter these details (two OTP's from NDSL - one on your mobile number and the other on your email address), you are shown an acknowledgement saying that your request has been submitted to Income Tax department.

Fairly simple. However you might have to try several times if the servers are misbehaving! especially between Step 5 and Step 6.
Summary
if you want to replicate your Aadhar address details on your PAN!
- You need to have a valid Aadhar card
- You need a valid PAN card
- You need updated address details in your Aadhar database
- You will need a mobile number linked to your Aadhar

- Your mobile service needs to work, the NDSL servers need to work, your email servers need to work, internet up ;-)
