What is it?

Mukhyamantri Majhi Ladki Bahin Yojana gives ₹1,500 per month by direct transfer to eligible women of Maharashtra aged 21–65 whose family income is within the limit. Registration happens through the portal/app or at Setu/Anganwadi centres, and the government periodically re-verifies beneficiaries through e-KYC.

Benefits

₹1,500 every month directly into the woman's Aadhaar-linked bank account. The status page shows each installment's credit or the exact reason a payment was held — usually pending e-KYC or bank seeding.

Practical example: Priya from Pune opens the portal, enters her registered mobile number, verifies OTP, and sees her October installment marked 'Paid'. Her neighbour's status shows 'e-KYC pending' — she completes it with Aadhaar OTP and the next installment arrives on time.

Eligibility criteria

  • ✓Woman resident of Maharashtra, aged 21–65 years
  • ✓Family annual income up to ₹2.5 lakh
  • ✓Aadhaar-linked bank account in the applicant's own name
  • ✓Not a family with an income-tax payer or regular government employee
  • ✓e-KYC completed when the government opens the verification window

Documents required

  • ✓Aadhaar card
  • ✓Bank passbook (own account, Aadhaar-linked)
  • ✓Income certificate or self-declaration
  • ✓Domicile/residence proof of Maharashtra
  • ✓Registered mobile number

How to apply — step by step

  1. Open ladakibahin.maharashtra.gov.in or the Nari Shakti Doot app
  2. Choose the application/beneficiary status option
  3. Enter your registered mobile number and verify the OTP
  4. View each installment's status — Paid, Pending, or Rejected with reason
  5. If e-KYC is pending, complete it with Aadhaar OTP on the portal or at a Setu centre
  6. If bank seeding failed, visit your bank to link Aadhaar and enable DBT

Important dates

e-KYC windows are announced by the state from time to time; missing the window pauses installments until verification is completed. Keep your mobile number active for OTPs.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • ✓Ignoring the e-KYC window — payments stop until it is done
  • ✓Bank account in another family member's name — the account must be the applicant's own
  • ✓Changed mobile number not updated, so OTPs never arrive
  • ✓Believing WhatsApp forwards about 'list closure' — always verify on the official portal

Frequently asked questions

Payment stopped suddenly. What should I check first?

Check status on the portal — in most cases e-KYC is pending or Aadhaar-bank seeding failed.

Can married women from other states apply?

The scheme is for Maharashtra residents; domicile/residence proof is required.

Is there a last date to register?

Registration windows are announced by the state; check the portal for the current window.

My name was removed after verification. Can I appeal?

Yes — approach your nearest Setu/Anganwadi centre with documents to re-verify.
