Bhubaneswar, February 10: As of February 8, 2025, the Subhadra Yojana has reached over 98 lakh beneficiaries, with 18 lakh new additions in its fourth phase. The National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) has been crucial in ensuring smooth fund transfers by identifying “Payment Ready Beneficiaries” and minimizing payment failures.
To qualify for the scheme, beneficiaries must: A) Have a single-holder bank account. B) Link it to their Aadhaar. C) Ensure DBT (Direct Benefit Transfer) activation. D) Complete biometric-based eKYC at a Jana Seva or Mo Seva Kendra.
While most requirements are bank-based, eKYC must be done at a service center. Despite the progress, over 2.5 lakh eligible beneficiaries still face issues due to non-DBT accounts or incomplete eKYC. A list of these beneficiaries is available on the Subhadra portal and at local centers.
Eligible individuals should complete the necessary steps at their bank or service center to receive their payments, with the first installment arriving before March 8 and the second installment on March 8, 2025.
