Why is Aadhaar update necessary?

According to UIDAI, it is mandatory to update the information recorded in the Aadhaar card, such as name, address, date of birth and mobile number every 10 years. If your Aadhaar is older than 10 years or there is any mistake in it, then it is necessary to update it, so that the benefits of government services and schemes can be availed without interruption.

You can correct or change the spelling of your name. As per UIDAI rules, the name can be changed a maximum of twice in a lifetime and the date of birth can be changed only once in a lifetime. A valid document is required for this. Gender information can also be changed only once in a lifetime.
