Women who are residents of Madhya Pradesh, aged 21 to 60, and married — including widowed, divorced or abandoned women — can apply. The household must sit outside the better-off bracket: combined family income under ₹2.5 lakh a year, no income-tax payer and no government employee in the family, less than five acres of land, and no four-wheeler (tractors excepted).
What you get
Eligible women receive ₹1,500 every month, credited directly to their Aadhaar-linked bank account (the amount was raised from ₹1,250 in late 2025, and the state has announced phased increases toward ₹3,000). Women over 60 who receive less than this under social-security pensions are topped up to the same level.
How to apply
Applications are collected through gram panchayat, ward and anganwadi camps — a designated officer enters your pre-filled form on the portal, photographs you on the spot, and issues a printed acknowledgement. Keep your Samagra family ID, Aadhaar and an Aadhaar-linked, DBT-enabled bank account ready; new application windows open by government announcement.
