Dear Parents / Guardians,

Sub : Compulsory APAAR ID / PEN for all students

The Ministry of Education launched the Automated Permanent Academic Account Registry (APAAR) aiming for ‘One Nation, One Student ID’. The APAAR ID or (Permanent Education Number) PEN is a specialised identification number designed for all students in India. It is a unique 12-digit code used to digitally store, manage, and access all academic credits, degrees, diplomas, certificates, training details, and co-curricular certificates of students. All students in India can take benefit of APAAR ID, they can register themselves online through the official website, apaar.education.gov.in or abc.gov.in.

Students are not required to provide documents physically; they just need to provide PEN or APAAR ID at the time of admission. This streamlines and smoothens the process of storing and providing documents. Read the entire article to know how to get the PEN number/ APAAR ID CSC.

APAAR stands for Automated Permanent Academic Account Registry, a portal launched through the Common Service Centres (CSCs). It will provide a 12-digit unique code to students as their Permanent Education Number (PEN) or APAAR ID. As per this, all students must register on the Academic Bank of Credits (ABC). The ABC ID is linked to the APAAR ID and, hence, receives academic credits from institutions through the National Academic Depository.

The Academic Bank of Credits was established on the concept of the National Academic Depository (NAD). ABC is a digital repository or store where students can register or transfer credits, the final outcomes of credit redemption and issuance of certificates as well as the compilation of award records are managed by the academic institutions. This helps to make the authentication and verification process easier at the admission.

To create the APAAR ID, students need to follow the steps mentioned below:

Go to APAAR ID official website, apaar.education.gov.in.
On the homepage, click on the ‘Create your APAAR’ link.
On the next window, click on ‘Don't have provisional APAAR number? Create new link.
Now, enter the Aadhaar number and click on the ‘Next’ button.
Enter the OTP received on the registered mobile number.
Click the ‘Allow’ button to give consent.

Now, the DigiLocker will open and here students can download the APPAR/ ABC ID card shown on the homepage. The ABC ID number or APAAR ID number is written on the card for students' reference.

How to Download ABC ID/APAAR ID Card Through Academic Bank of Credits?

Students/ Colleges can download the ABC ID card through the official website of Academic Bank of Credits. Follow the below steps to know how to get ABC ID online:

Go to the Academic Bank of Credits official website, abc.gov.in.
