How to Remove Shadows from Aadhar & PAN Card Photos (Using Mobile)

Why Shadows Cause Document Rejection

When taking a photo of your Aadhar card, PAN card, or marksheet using your mobile phone, it is very common for your hand or phone to cast a dark shadow over the document. When you upload these documents to government portals (like SSC, UPSC, or Bank KYC), they are often rejected by automated systems or verification officers because the text becomes unreadable.

The Old Way: Photoshop

In the past, removing a shadow required opening Photoshop, using the dodge/burn tools, and manually adjusting contrast levels. Not only does this require a laptop, but it also takes time and skill.
