KYC — Aadhaar OTP entry

Summary

Step 3 of the KYC flow. User enters the 6-digit OTP that UIDAI sent to the phone number registered with their Aadhaar.

Copy

• H1: "Enter the OTP from UIDAI"
• Sub: "A 6-digit code was sent to the phone linked to Aadhaar ending ·· {last4}."
• OTP input: 6 single-digit boxes
• Primary CTA: "Verify →"
• Timer: "Code expires in 04:42"
• Resend: "Resend OTP"
• Helper: "Wrong phone? Update your Aadhaar phone at uidai.gov.in, then start over."

Behaviour

• OTP expires in 5 minutes (UIDAI default).
• Resend available after first attempt; rate-limited per UIDAI rules (max 3 resends per 30 min).
• On verify success → status screen pending state (UIDAI response usually instant; rarely up to a minute). On verify failure → inline error "Wrong OTP" with retry.
