Payment not received? Possible reasons
- If the bank account is not NPCI-mapped, the DBT fails. Ask the bank for 'Aadhaar seeding'.
- Aadhaar is not linked to the bank account (NPCI mapping). Ask the bank branch, or check 'Bank Seeding Status' at myaadhaar.uidai.gov.in (the menu name may change).
- e-KYC / verification is pending. Complete it online, at a CSC or at the concerned office.
- Name or date of birth is different in the application and in Aadhaar/bank records.
- The bank account is closed or dormant, or the account number/IFSC on the portal is wrong.
- The instalment was released late because of government approval, funds or an election code of conduct. In that case payments are held for everyone in the state, not only for you.
