Aadhaar number holders carried out 231 billion authentication transactions in November 2025, representing growth of almost 8.5 per cent compared with the same month last year. This marks the highest monthly figure recorded in the current financial year, surpassing October’s 219.51 billion transactions. The rising numbers highlight Aadhaar’s expanding role in enabling welfare delivery and supporting voluntary access to a wide range of digital services.

Aadhaar’s face authentication solution continued to gain significant traction. Nearly 60 per cent of Digital Life Certificates generated by pensioners in November were verified using face authentication. The AI-based modality, available on both Android and iOS, allows users to confirm their identity through a simple face scan while maintaining high security standards. A total of 28.29 billion face authentication transactions were executed during November 2025, up sharply from 12.04 billion in the same month of 2024.

e-KYC transactions also registered robust growth. November recorded 47.19 billion e-KYC transactions—a rise of more than 24 per cent compared with November 2024. Aadhaar e-KYC continues to play a pivotal role in improving customer onboarding and enhancing ease of doing business across banking and non-banking financial services.
