DBT money not received? Find the reason in 1 minute

The money was sent — to the bank that holds your Aadhaar seeding

DBT is paid to whichever bank account is currently seeded with your Aadhaar in the NPCI mapper, not necessarily the account you wrote on the form.

1. Open myAadhaar → Bank Seeding Status (myaadhaar.uidai.gov.in/bank-seeding-status) and log in with Aadhaar OTP. It shows the bank name that receives DBT.
2. Check the passbook of that bank. Look for entries like “DBT”, “APB”, “PMKISAN”, “MMLBY” or the scheme name.
3. If that is an old or closed account, move DBT to your current account — see change your DBT bank.
4. If the correct bank shows no credit after 7 working days, raise a complaint with the scheme helpline using the transaction/UTR number from the status page.

Your bank account is not seeded with Aadhaar for DBT

Your bank may have your Aadhaar in its records (“linked”), but it has not updated the NPCI mapper (“seeded”). DBT only follows the mapper.

1. Visit your bank branch and ask for the Aadhaar seeding / DBT consent form (often called the NPCI mapping form).
2. Tick the box to receive DBT in this account, sign, and attach a copy of Aadhaar.
3. Also make sure the account is active (not dormant) and KYC is complete. A single deposit or withdrawal can revive a dormant account after KYC.
4. Check again after 2–5 working days on myAadhaar “Bank Seeding Status”.
5. No working bank account? An India Post Payments Bank (IPPB) account can be opened at the post office with Aadhaar and seeded on the spot.

3. Make sure land records are verified and your bank is Aadhaar-seeded.

Scholarship DBT failed
