The Ladli Behna Yojana is a flagship welfare initiative of the Madhya Pradesh government providing monthly financial assistance to eligible women. Under this scheme, registered beneficiaries receive ₹1250 (now increased to ₹1500 in later months) directly in their bank accounts through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT). The scheme aims to financially empower women and support family expenses.
Expected Payment Timing for ₹1250 Installment
Historically, the monthly payment under Ladli Behna Yojana has been credited to beneficiaries’ bank accounts in the second week of each month. The government typically schedules disbursements around the 10th to 15th of the month, with some variations due to bank processing times. If your name is in the beneficiary list and all details are correct, you can expect the ₹1250 installment during this usual disbursement window.
Who Qualifies for the Monthly Payment
Women aged between 21 and 60 years whose Samagra ID, Aadhaar, and bank details are verified and linked to the scheme are eligible to receive the monthly amount. Only beneficiaries with active status on the official portal and proper eKYC completion will see the payment credited to their accounts as scheduled.
How to Check If Your Name Is Eligible
Beneficiaries can verify their payment eligibility online by visiting the official Ladli Behna Yojana portal. Enter your registered mobile number, application number, or Samagra ID, complete the OTP verification, and the system will show your beneficiary status and payment eligibility. If your name is displayed with an active status, the payment is being processed for your account.
Direct Benefit Transfer Process Explained
The payment under Ladli Behna Yojana uses DBT to transfer funds directly to bank accounts, eliminating intermediaries. Once the government authorizes the installment, the amount is deposited into the beneficiary’s Aadhaar-linked bank account, reducing the risk of fraud and ensuring transparency and timely credit.

Eligible women must ensure that their bank and Aadhaar details are verified and linked to the scheme to receive payments on time. Regularly checking your status using the official portal will confirm whether your name is included and whether the next installment is scheduled for disbursement.
