If this linking is not done, then you may face many problems in your income tax refund , online payment or bank transactions. Meaning, without linking, your money and banking work may get disrupted.
Why is it necessary to link PAN to bank account?
The Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) has made it clear that it is mandatory to link every savings account with a PAN number. By doing this, your income tax refund comes directly into the account.
If your account is not linked to PAN , the bank can restrict some transactions. Transfer and debit services may be stopped due to incomplete KYC. Restrictions have also been imposed on such accounts since December 2016.
