The total duration of the maintenance work will be 150 minutes. 

The bank has been facing this similar issue for quite some time. On July 9, SBI informed its customers via tweet that its internet banking, YONO, YONO Lite, and UPI services will be unavailable on 10th and 11th July between 10.45 pm and 12.15 am due to maintenance work.

Meanwhile, SBI has asked its customers to link their PAN with Aadhaar to avoid any inconvenience and continue enjoying a seamless banking service.  

The Income Tax Department has extended the last date for Aadhaar PAN link till September 30, 2021. Earlier it was June 30 to seed Aadhaar with PAN card.  

SBI has also tweeted reminding its customers to link their Aadhaar with PAN on its official Twitter handle. The tweet mentioned: "We advise our customers to link their PAN with Aadhaar to avoid any inconvenience and continue enjoying a seamless banking service." 

Seeding Aadhaar with PAN is mandatory and if one's Aadhaar is not linked with PAN, the PAN will be declared inactive. As a repercussion to this, one will have to pay a penalty also. The SBI customers must link their 12-digit Aadhaar number with PAN in order to avoid any inconvenience.
