Automated Permanent Academic Account Registry
Automated Permanent Academic Account Registry ID (APAAR ID), also known as Academic Bank of Credits ID (ABC ID) is a twelve-digit unique identification number for students in India, established as part of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. It allows students to store, manage, and transfer academic credits earned at different higher education institutions in a digital, centralized system. Essentially, it's a digital bank account for academic credits, facilitating credit accumulation, transfer, and recognition across institutions.[1]
