Aadhaar authentication transactions have crossed the significant milestone of 150 billion, showcasing the rapid growth and widespread adoption of Aadhaar-based services in India. This achievement highlights the role of the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) in driving the digital economy forward. In April 2025 alone, there were 210 crore authentication transactions, an 8% increase compared to April 2024.
