Is it mandatory to link Aadhaar with a mobile number ?

Yes. For Aadhaar-based verification, OTPs are sent to the mobile number linked with your Aadhaar.

Without this linkage, your eKYC and digital account opening cannot be completed.

Tip: If your mobile number isn’t linked to Aadhaar, you’ll need to update it at the nearest Aadhaar Seva Kendra before proceeding.
