Can anyone please confirm the last date for linking Aadhar Card with bank accounts in India.
I understand the date has been extended to 31st March 2018 from 31st December 2017.
Is Aadhar card mandatory for NRIs.

Nope its not Mandatory if you are a foreign citizen or foreign PR holder.
If your account is NRO or NRE there is no need to link Aadhaar card to the bank account.
If its an ordinary resident account, the bank might be on your Ass to link it.
As a foreigner and somebody who did not stay in India for the past 6 months , I think we are not eligible to apply for a Aadhar card anyway

Anyone going thru similar issue ?- any Advice
Thanks
You need to tell them that you are an NRI /foreigner and Aadhar is not required for you . They may ask you to close the Mutual funds/bank accounts etc as you are not eligible for them since you are an NRI now
