Ladki Bahin Yojana | For the economic empowerment of women in Maharashtra, the then grand coalition government launched the Chief Minister Majhi Ladki Bahin Yojana in 2024. Eligible women in the age group of 21 to 65 years get Rs. 1500 per month under this scheme. Even today crores of women in Maharashtra are getting the benefit of this scheme and there is an atmosphere of happiness among women. But some women in the state applied even though they did not fit the criteria and availed the benefit of this scheme every month. In such a case, the government has made e-KYC mandatory to ensure that only eligible women get the benefit of this scheme and to bring more transparency in it.

Earlier the last date for e-KYC amendment was 31 March 2026. But now this date has been extended to April 30, 2026 by extending the deadline by one month. Women and Child Development Minister Aditi Tatkare herself has said that the last chance has been given for E KYC of Ladaki Bahin Yojana. Therefore, if EKYC is not done by 30th April 2026, then the benefits of Ladaki Bahin Yojana of such women may be stopped, their monthly income of Rs. 1500 may be stopped. So if you have done EKYC, and there is something wrong in it, correct it now. Otherwise, your benefit of Rs. 1500 will stop from the month of May. Ladki Bahin Yojana

In the month of September, the e-KYC process of Chief Minister Majhi Ladki Bahin Yojana was started. Thereafter, the deadline for e-KYC was given as 31 December 2025. However, due to many reasons such as high number of women, inadequate system and some technical difficulties, women faced difficulties in doing e KYC. Many women were deprived of doing e-KYC.

Therefore, the government finalized the date 31 March 2026 for e-KYC. However, as many women are still not processed through E KYC and the technical errors are still not rectified, the government has now extended the E KYC deadline for one more month for such women.
