New Delhi: In a strong signal of India’s accelerating digital adoption, the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) recorded 229.33 crore Aadhaar authentication transactions in June 2025, marking a 7.8% year-on-year growth compared to June 2024. The cumulative Aadhaar-based authentication transactions have now crossed 15,452 crore since the inception of the system.
The surge reflects the deepening reliance on Aadhaar as a foundational digital ID across public services, financial sectors, and welfare delivery mechanisms.
Face Authentication Records All-Time High
A significant milestone was also achieved in AI-powered Aadhaar Face Authentication, with a record 15.87 crore transactions conducted in June—nearly 3.4 times higher than the 4.61 crore recorded in June 2024. So far, nearly 175 crore face authentications have been successfully carried out.
UIDAI’s in-house developed AI/ML-based face authentication tool, compatible with both Android and iOS, is gaining momentum for its ability to offer secure, contactless, and convenient identity verification.
Over 100 government departments and private service providers across sectors such as banking, oil & gas, telecom, and public distribution are currently using face authentication to enhance service delivery and user verification.
e-KYC Transactions Top 39 Crore in June
In addition to authentication, Aadhaar e-KYC services also demonstrated strong adoption, clocking 39.47 crore transactions in June 2025. This underscores Aadhaar’s vital role in enabling seamless onboarding, verification, and service access, especially in banking, NBFCs, and digital service providers.
UIDAI emphasized that Aadhaar continues to serve as a cornerstone for ease of living and doing business, enabling millions of Indians to access services and entitlements efficiently and securely.
