Aadhaar for filing income-tax returns

The income-tax department is making life easier for taxpayers willing to link their Aadhaar while filing returns. The Central Board of Direct Taxes, apex body of the department, introduced a column in the I-T return for 2015-16, where an e-filer can provide his Aadhaar number that will have to be authenticated on the official website of the department via a One Time Password. Earlier, despite filing a return online, taxpayers had to take printouts of the acknowledgement and send it by post to the department in Bengaluru.
