 Updating your mobile number in Aadhaar can be done through both online and offline methods. Here’s how you can update your mobile number:

### Online Method:

1. **Visit the UIDAI Website:**

   - Go to the official UIDAI website: https://uidai.gov.in/.

   

2. **Click on 'Update Your Aadhaar' Link:**

   - Look for the 'Update Your Aadhaar' link on the website and click on it.

3. **Select 'Update Mobile Number':**

   - Choose the option to update your mobile number.

4. **Fill in the Aadhaar Update Form:**

   - You will need to fill in the Aadhaar Update Form with your current Aadhaar number and the new mobile number you want to update.

5. **Submit Documents:**

   - You may need to upload scanned copies of documents that verify your identity.

6. **Verification:**

   - After submitting the form, you will receive an OTP (One-Time Password) on your existing mobile number registered with Aadhaar for verification.

7. **Update Confirmation:**

   - Once OTP verification is successful, your new mobile number will be updated in the Aadhaar database.

### Offline Method:

1. **Visit the Nearest Aadhaar Enrolment Centre:**

   - Locate the nearest Aadhaar Enrolment Centre. You can find one using the UIDAI website or by asking locally.

2. **Fill Aadhaar Correction Form:**

   - Obtain an Aadhaar Correction Form (also known as Aadhaar Update/Correction Form) from the centre.

3. **Fill in Details:**

   - Fill in the form with your current Aadhaar number and the new mobile number you wish to update.

4. **Submit Form and Documents:**

   - Submit the filled form along with necessary identity proof documents (carry originals for verification).

5. **Biometric Authentication:**

   - Provide your biometrics (fingerprints, iris scan) for authentication.

6. **Receive Acknowledgement:**

   - After the process is completed, you will receive an acknowledgement slip. This slip contains an Update Request Number (URN) which you can use to check the status of your update.

7. **Update Confirmation:**

   - Once the update is processed (usually takes a few days to weeks), you will receive an SMS on your new mobile number confirming the update.

### Important Notes:

- Ensure the mobile number you provide is active and accessible during the update process.

- Keep your URN and acknowledgement slip safe until the update is confirmed.

- There may be instances where updates are rejected due to discrepancies or incomplete information. In such cases, you may need to reapply.

By following these steps, you can successfully update your mobile number in your Aadhaar card record.
