However, all the 811 accounts are considered ad Limited KYC account, so you have to visit the branch within 1 year’s time, from the date you created the account to do the Full KYC.

Some of the points to keep in mind before creating the account.

First, Even Though you are creating the account using Aadhaar number and Pan number, Authentication is made only on the Aadhaar number using Aadhaar based OTP. No authentication is made on the Pan number, so your name on the Pan Card should be exactly the same as on the Aadhaar card.

If your name is not the same, your account will be created as link normal, but after 2,3 days after the verification process from the team, your account will get Debit Freeze. In that case, you either need to send them by email, the self-attested copy of the corrected name on the Pan Card, or need to visit the branch to do a Full KYC to get the freeze removed. So better to make sure the name exactly the same before applying for the account.

Secondly, you will not be able to create an account if your mobile number is not added to your Aadhaar Card.

One more thing to keep in mind that, if you created your account successfully, it will be better to keep waiting for a few hours to use your card. Because for the activation of card it will take some time since mostly there system will take some time in updating your mobile number, email address, etc to their network. If you experience any issue please contact the customer support.
