The Maharashtra government has taken a key step to make the Chief Minister’s Ladki Bahin Yojana more transparent.
Now, every woman receiving benefits under this scheme must complete the e-KYC (electronic Know Your Customer) process.
This online verification of identity and documents is necessary to continue receiving the monthly financial assistance of ₹1,500.
The deadline to complete e-KYC is November 18, 2025. After this date, renewals will be required every June.
Failing to complete the e-KYC on time will result in suspension of the monthly installments.
How to Complete e-KYC
Online Process
Visit the official website: ladakibahin.maharashtra.gov.in
Click on eKYC on the homepage.
Enter your Aadhaar number and the captcha code.
Tick the “Yes, I agree” checkbox and click Send OTP.
An OTP will be sent to your Aadhaar-linked mobile number. Enter it and submit.
If your e-KYC is already complete, a message “eKYC already completed” will appear.
If not, the system will check your Aadhaar against the scheme list, and the next steps will open for you to complete the process.
Offline Process
If online submission is difficult, you can complete e-KYC at your nearest Anganwadi center, Setu center, or tehsil office.
Bring your Aadhaar card and all original documents for verification.
