Ladli Behna Yojana May 2026 Installment — What You Need to Know
The Ladli Behna Yojana is a Madhya Pradesh government scheme that pays ₹1,250 per month to eligible women. The May 2026 installment of ₹1,250 was expected to be credited to the bank accounts of over 1.29 crore women beneficiaries around 10th May 2026. Payments under the scheme are typically released on the 10th of each month, and Chief Minister Mohan Yadav has confirmed that the monthly transfers are continuing.
The money is sent through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) straight to the beneficiary's bank account, which must be Aadhaar-linked and active. If you are a registered beneficiary, you can verify whether the installment has been credited by logging in to the official portal. You can read the full scheme details on our Ladli Behna Yojana page, and explore more government welfare schemes for women and families.
For example, imagine Sunita, a 35-year-old homemaker from Indore whose family income is below ₹2.5 lakh a year. Once her application is approved and her eKYC and Aadhaar–bank linking are complete, she would receive ₹1,250 in her own bank account each month — adding up to ₹15,000 over a year. (This is a hypothetical illustration to explain how the benefit works.)

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: My May 2026 installment has not come — what should I do?
If your installment does not arrive by around 12 May 2026, check that your bank account is active and Aadhaar-linked, that your eKYC is complete, and that your application status shows "Approved". You can also contact your local Anganwadi worker or Gram Panchayat for corrections, or call the helpline 0755-2700800.
Q: How do I check my Ladli Behna Yojana payment status?
Visit cmladlibahna.mp.gov.in, click on "आवेदन एवं भुगतान की स्थिति", enter your registered mobile number or application number, verify with the OTP, and your complete payment history and status will be displayed.
Q: My application was rejected — what now?
Review the eligibility criteria (age, income below ₹2.5 lakh, land under 5 acres, MP residency) to see which condition may not be met. For corrections to your details, contact your local Anganwadi worker or Gram Panchayat, and use the official portal to re-check your status.
Q: The amount credited seems wrong — who do I ask?
The standard monthly benefit is ₹1,250. If the credited amount looks different, check your payment history on the portal and confirm whether a previous month's payment was combined or adjusted. For clarification, call the helpline 0755-2700800 or raise a grievance through the official channels.
Q: Is eKYC and Aadhaar linking mandatory?
Yes. Payments are made via Direct Benefit Transfer, so your bank account must be Aadhaar-linked and your eKYC must be complete. An incomplete eKYC or missing Aadhaar–bank link is one of the most common reasons a payment fails to arrive.
Q: I am a new applicant — can I still join?
New registrations are accepted when the government opens application windows or camps. Keep your Aadhaar, Samagra ID, bank passbook and photograph ready, and check cmladlibahna.mp.gov.in or your local Gram Panchayat/ward office for the latest registration details.
Q: Does this scheme differ from women's schemes in other states?
Yes. Ladli Behna Yojana is specific to Madhya Pradesh. Other states run their own women's welfare schemes with different names, amounts and eligibility rules, so the conditions and benefits described here apply only to MP residents.
Q: How do I file a complaint if my issue is not resolved?
First contact your Anganwadi worker or Gram Panchayat and call the helpline 0755-2700800. If the issue remains unresolved, you can lodge a grievance on the national public grievance portal at pgportal.gov.in.
