  4. Enter the OTP received on the Aadhaar registered mobile number and click on Login.
  5. Click on Download Aadhaar.
  6. Click on Do you want a masked Aadhaar?
  7. Click on Download.
  8. Click on the downloaded file and enter the first four letters of your name as per Aadhaar in CAPITAL letters and year of birth in YYYY format.
