The Phase 3 payments of the Ehsaas Scheme have started. Eligible women can now collect financial help of 10,500 rupees. If you are already receiving payments under this scheme, check your amount using the 8171 portal. Once confirmed, go to your nearest cash center to collect the money.
Last Phase of Quarterly Payments
This is the final stage of the October to December payments. Beneficiaries should collect their amount as soon as possible. Payments will stop after December 25. If you miss this deadline, the money will not be available until February 2025. However, the good news is that missed payments will be doubled during the next distribution cycle.
Payment Increase from January 2025
Starting January 2025, the payment amount will increase to 13,500 rupees. This will provide better financial relief for beneficiaries. New registrations for this increased assistance will also begin in January. If you are not yet part of the Ehsaas Scheme, this is a great chance to apply and get help.
