Frequently Asked Questions — Maharashtra Majhi Ladki Bahin Yojana 2026: Rs. 1,500 Monthly DBT & Application Form (अक्सर पूछे जाने वाले सवाल)

Is an Income Certificate mandatory if our family has an Orange or Yellow Ration Card in Maharashtra?

No. Under the relaxed state government guidelines, if a family possesses an active Yellow or Orange Ration Card issued by the Maharashtra Food & Civil Supplies Department, it is accepted as valid proof of income, and a separate Tehsildar Income Certificate is NOT required.

Can unmarried daughters aged 21 and above apply for Majhi Ladki Bahin Yojana?

Yes. Unlike many other state schemes, Maharashtra Majhi Ladki Bahin explicitly includes unmarried adult women aged between 21 and 65 years, provided they meet the family income ceiling and do not have family members in regular government service.

What is the 'Hamipatra' and where can I download it?

The Hamipatra (हमीपत्र) is a standardized 1-page self-declaration wherein the woman certifies that her family income is below Rs. 2.5 Lakh, no family member pays income tax, and she does not own a four-wheeler. The official format is available for direct download on ladakibahin.maharashtra.gov.in.
