How to check if Aadhaar card is linked to bank account? Step-by-step guide
The government issued the notification on 1st June 2017. It mandates the linking of Aadhaar with all bank accounts. All the banks and financial institutions have been directed to comply with this. The bank accounts that are not linked with Aadhaar will not be operational as per the guidelines by the government. Even if you have given your Aadhaar details to the bank for updating the same in your account, but it is not updated at all, then to check, UIDAI has now made it simple to check the bank account and Aadhaar linking status online.
To check the linking status follow the steps given below-
Step 1- The first step is to visit the official website of UIDAI
Step 2- After that click on ‘Check Aadhaar and Bank Account Linking Status’. You will be redirected to the bank mapping page

There is also a way to check this linking status by your mobile.
