Aadhaar Updation: June 14, 2024

 

Aadhaar detail is a mandatory for the ‘know your customer’ (KYC) process for banks as well as for making investments in post office schemes or in the securities market.

 

Therefore, it is important to keep your Aadhaar details updated. In case of any change in your Aadhaar details, you can update it either on the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) website or the UIDAI mobile app, or even at a nearby Aadhaar centre. 

 

The last date for making the changes free of charge is June 14, 2024. The previous date was March 14, 2024, which was extended by three months to June 14, 2024.

 

Incidentally, UIDAI also suggests that one should get his/her Aadhaar updated if it is more than 10 years old.

 

As Aadhaar is required for authentication purposes for bank and various other transactions, so it advisable to update the change free of charge before the due date of June 14, 2024, and keep the records up-to-date.

 

Nomination Updation In Demat, MFs: June 30, 2024

 

The deadline to update nominations in dematerialised accounts and mutual funds is June 30, 2024.

 

The date has been extended several times in the past, after the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) issued a circular on July 29, 2022, regarding updating or opting out of the nomination in dematerialised accounts and mutual funds.

 

One can update the nomination in their dematerialised account through the broker with whom they have an account. For mutual funds, investors can update the nomination details either online with the asset management companies (AMCs), or the Registrar and Transfer Agent (RTA), such as KFin Technologies or Computer Age Management Services Limited (CAMS), or, offline through brokers, AMCs, and RTAs.
