If an Assesse files ITR for A.Y. 2017-18 within 30th June, 2017, he or she has the option to mention his or her Aadhar no in the ITR. Is it correct or not. From 1st July, 2017 whether it is mandatory to give Aadhar number in the ITR and also Linking of Aadhar number is compulsory otherwise ITR cannot be uploaded from 1st July'2017. Please confirm the message is correct or not.

Thanks,
