    Important: Aadhaar number isn't available as national identifier in India Payroll.

The Supreme Court of India upheld the validity of Aadhaar Act terming it as beneficial legislation, but weeded out provisions which had potential for misuse. It has struck down the section 57 of Aadhaar Act, which enables not only state but also corporate bodies and individuals to seek Aadhaar number for authentication and termed the Section 57 as unconstitutional and no corporate firm can henceforth ask for Aadhaar details.
