Rajya Sabha on 31st March 2007 that the number of persons
having duplicate PANs in 13.1 lakhs. This is just about 4 percent
of those who filed returns in 2012-13. On 22nd April 2016 the
cancelled PAN cards were 11,56,894.

RBI Deputy Governor S.S.Mundra had said that third parties can
be used to launder the proceeds of fraud schemes (such as
phishing and identity the) by criminals who gain illegal access to
deposit accounts by recruiting them as money mules. True to
the warnings, the Jan Dhan bank accounts, which are the tip of
the iceberg in terms of bank accounts opened with Aadhaar as
the sole KYC, had a rise Rs 32,000 crore in Jan Dhan deposits
within two weeks of demonetisation. This demonstrated that
Aadhaar banking aids criminal activities and money laundering.
Social activist Nikhil Dey says, The government claims that the
Aadhaar card will ensure higher e iciency, greater inclusiveness,
and a reduction in corruption. But in Rajasthan, what we are
getting are more ine iciency, more exclusion, and more
corruption.
The CAG has already pointed out that the savings attributed to
Aadhaar are in fact denial of subsidy to more than 4.53 crore
domestic LPG consumers. The CAG also found consumers with
multiple connections who received subsidy on more than 12
cylinders as well as an advance payment on registration.
