 +**Reviewed on:** 2026-06-19.
 +
 +<WRAP info>**Direct answer.** The Karnataka government pays **Rs. 2,000 per month** to eligible women under Gruha Lakshmi as a direct bank transfer (DBT) into the beneficiary's Aadhaar-seeded individual bank account. To check whether your installment has been credited, visit [[https://sevasindhu.karnataka.gov.in|sevasindhu.karnataka.gov.in]], enter your application reference number on the homepage tracking tool, or verify the credit on the PFMS Know Your Payment portal at [[https://pfms.nic.in|pfms.nic.in]] using your bank account number.</WRAP>
 +
 +===== How to check your Gruha Lakshmi status, step by step =====
 +
 +There are two official methods. Use Method A first; if it does not return payment details, use Method B.
 +
 +**Method A: Seva Sindhu application status tracker**
 +
 +  - Step 1: Open a browser and go to [[https://sevasindhu.karnataka.gov.in|sevasindhu.karnataka.gov.in]].
 +  - Step 2: On the homepage, find the section labelled "Track Your Application Status."
 +  - Step 3: Enter your **Application Reference Number** (you received this by SMS when you first applied for Gruha Lakshmi).
 +  - Step 4: The portal returns your application status, the department name (Women and Child Development), and the date of submission. If your application is approved and active, the status will show as sanctioned or disbursed.
 +  - Step 5: For a full SMS trail, check the mobile number you registered at the time of application; the portal sends a message at each stage of processing.
 +
 +If you do not have your reference number, call the Seva Sindhu helpdesk at **8088304855** or **9380204364** (9 am to 6 pm on government working days) with your Aadhaar number to retrieve it.
 +
 +**Method B: PFMS Know Your Payment (for bank credit confirmation)**
 +
 +  - Step 1: Go to [[https://pfms.nic.in|pfms.nic.in]] and navigate to the Know Your Payment section.
 +  - Step 2: Select your bank name from the dropdown (type the first few letters to search).
 +  - Step 3: Enter your **bank account number** and confirm it in the second field.
 +  - Step 4: Complete the word verification (CAPTCHA).
 +  - Step 5: Click Submit. The portal shows DBT credits from government schemes into your account, including the transaction date and amount.
 +  - Step 6: Look for a credit of Rs. 2,000 from "Gruha Lakshmi" or "WCD Karnataka" in the results.
 +
 +The PFMS portal confirms whether the central payment pipeline released the money to your bank. If PFMS shows a credit but your bank passbook does not, visit your bank branch; the amount may be held pending an Aadhaar or KYC check at the bank's end.
 +
 +===== Who qualifies for Gruha Lakshmi? =====
 +
 +The scheme targets women who are the primary earners or homemakers in their household. Based on official Karnataka government information, the core conditions are:
 +
 +  * The applicant is a **woman who is the head of the household or the primary woman member** of a ration-card family.
 +  * She holds a valid **Karnataka ration card** (confirm current applicable category on [[https://sevasindhu.karnataka.gov.in|sevasindhu.karnataka.gov.in]], as eligibility categories are updated by government order).
 +  * She has her **own individual bank account** linked to her Aadhaar number with DBT enabled.
 +  * She is a **permanent resident of Karnataka**.
 +  * She is **18 years of age or above**.
 +
 +Women who hold government employment or whose family income crosses the threshold set by government order are generally excluded. Verify the current exclusion list on [[https://sevasindhu.karnataka.gov.in|sevasindhu.karnataka.gov.in]] or at your nearest Grama One centre, as the Karnataka government updates eligibility conditions by order from time to time.
 +
 +===== Amount, installment, and payment dates =====
 +
 +As per official Karnataka government announcements, Gruha Lakshmi pays **Rs. 2,000 per month** per eligible household directly into the beneficiary's Aadhaar-seeded bank account through DBT. This amounts to **Rs. 24,000 per year** per family.
 +
 +Payments are released in monthly installments. The exact credit date for each installment varies and is announced by the Karnataka government separately for each month. Verify the current installment release schedule on [[https://sevasindhu.karnataka.gov.in|sevasindhu.karnataka.gov.in]] or through your Grama One centre; do not rely on unofficial WhatsApp forwards for payment dates, as these are often wrong.
 +
 +**Important:** The Rs. 2,000 figure is as per the official scheme announcement. If the government revises the amount by order, the updated figure will appear on the official portal. Always verify on [[https://sevasindhu.karnataka.gov.in|sevasindhu.karnataka.gov.in]] before assuming a fixed amount.
 +
 +===== Money not showing, rejected, or payment stopped: troubleshooting =====
 +
 +This is the most common problem beneficiaries face. Work through these steps in order.
 +
 +**Step 1: Confirm your DBT is active at the bank**
 +
 +Visit your bank branch and ask whether DBT is active and whether your Aadhaar is seeded to your account. Aadhaar linking and DBT activation are two separate steps. Many accounts have Aadhaar linked but DBT disabled. Ask the bank to give you a written Aadhaar seeding receipt.
 +
 +**Step 2: Check PFMS for payment release**
 +
 +Use Method B above ([[https://pfms.nic.in|pfms.nic.in]] Know Your Payment). If PFMS shows a credit but your passbook does not, the issue is at the bank's end; escalate to the branch manager.
 +
 +**Step 3: Check your application status on Seva Sindhu**
 +
 +Use Method A above. If the status shows "Rejected" or "Cancelled," the portal usually shows a reason code. Common reasons include:
 +
 +  * Duplicate application (another registration exists under the same Aadhaar)
 +  * Aadhaar not seeded to the bank account
 +  * Account is joint (joint accounts are not accepted; an individual account is required)
 +  * Ration card mismatch
 +  * Bank account frozen or dormant
 +
 +Fix the specific reason at your nearest Grama One centre or Women and Child Development office.
 +
 +**Step 4: Visit your nearest Grama One centre**
 +
 +Grama One centres (Karnataka's doorstep service network) can access your Gruha Lakshmi record and help you correct bank details, Aadhaar linkage, or other errors without travelling to a district office.
 +
 +**Step 5: Call the helpdesk**
 +
 +Seva Sindhu helpline: **8088304855 / 6361799796 / 9380204364 / 9380206704** (9 am to 6 pm, government working days). Keep your application reference number and Aadhaar number ready before calling.
 +
 +**Step 6: File an RTI if the portal is silent**
 +
 +If two or more installments have been missed and no official reason has been given despite following Steps 1 to 5, you have the right to ask under the Right to Information Act 2005.
 +
 +**File an RTI to**: //Women and Child Development Department, Karnataka//
 +
 +  * Your application reference number and current status in the Gruha Lakshmi scheme
 +  * Transaction IDs for all Gruha Lakshmi disbursements made to your Aadhaar-seeded account
 +  * The specific reason your payment was held, rejected, or stopped
 +  * Action taken on any complaint you filed with the Seva Sindhu helpdesk
 +  * The name and designation of the officer responsible for processing your application
 +
 +RTI replies are due within 30 days. A written government response creates a paper trail that speeds up correction and escalation.

 +
 +===== FAQ =====
 +
 +==== Is Gruha Lakshmi the same as Maiya Samman Yojana? ====
 +
 +No. [[check-status:maiya-samman-yojana-status|Maiya Samman Yojana]] is a Jharkhand scheme. Gruha Lakshmi is a Karnataka state scheme administered through the Women and Child Development Department and applied for via [[https://sevasindhu.karnataka.gov.in|sevasindhu.karnataka.gov.in]]. Each scheme has its own portal, eligibility rules, and payment process.
 +
 +==== I never received my application reference number; how do I find my Gruha Lakshmi record? ====
 +
 +Call the Seva Sindhu helpdesk at **8088304855** with your Aadhaar number. The helpdesk can retrieve your application reference number from the system. Alternatively, visit your nearest Grama One centre in person with your Aadhaar card and ration card.
 +
 +==== My ration card is in my mother-in-law's name but I am the applicant; will that cause a problem? ====
 +
 +Gruha Lakshmi is linked to the ration card's primary woman member. If the ration card lists your mother-in-law as the primary female member and she is the registered beneficiary, the payment will go to her account. Only one woman per ration card receives the benefit. Confirm the registered beneficiary name on your Seva Sindhu application status page at [[https://sevasindhu.karnataka.gov.in|sevasindhu.karnataka.gov.in]].
 +
 +==== Can I change the bank account linked to Gruha Lakshmi? ====
 +
 +Yes, but only through official channels. Visit your Grama One centre or nearest Women and Child Development office with your new bank passbook (showing account number and IFSC), Aadhaar card, and ration card. Do not change your bank account midway without updating it through the scheme; unlinked accounts cause payment failures.
 +
 +==== My Gruha Lakshmi payment stopped after two or three installments; why? ====
 +
 +Common reasons for payment stoppage mid-run include: your bank account became dormant (no transactions for more than 12 months), your Aadhaar seeding expired or was reset by the bank, a verification drive found a mismatch in your details, or your ration card category was reclassified. Check your status on [[https://sevasindhu.karnataka.gov.in|sevasindhu.karnataka.gov.in]] and [[https://pfms.nic.in|pfms.nic.in]], then visit your Grama One centre to identify the exact reason.
 +
 +==== Does my husband need to give consent for me to apply? ====
 +
 +No. Gruha Lakshmi is applied for and received by the woman herself. The bank account must be in her own name (not a joint account), and she must apply using her own Aadhaar. Husband's consent is not a documented requirement under the scheme.
 +
 +==== What happens if my Aadhaar has a spelling mistake compared to my bank records? ====
 +
 +A name mismatch between Aadhaar and the bank account can block DBT. First correct the Aadhaar name at your nearest Aadhaar Seva Kendra (bring your birth certificate or school certificate as proof), then inform your bank to update the seeding. Finally, update the corrected details at the Grama One centre for the scheme record. See also [[check-status:aadhaar-status|Aadhaar status check]] for guidance on updating Aadhaar details.
