The Karnataka Government has released the 31st installment under the popular Grihalakshmi Yojana, bringing financial relief to millions of women across the state. As part of this latest payment cycle, eligible beneficiaries are receiving ₹2,000 directly into their bank accounts through the Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) system. The scheme continues to play a significant role in supporting women by providing monthly financial assistance to help meet household expenses.
According to the latest update, more than 1.24 crore women have benefited from this installment. The government has transferred nearly ₹2,400 crore under the 31st installment, reaffirming its commitment to women’s financial empowerment and family welfare.
What Is the Grihalakshmi Yojana?
The Grihalakshmi Yojana is one of the flagship welfare schemes launched by the Karnataka Government with the primary objective of strengthening the financial position of women. Under this scheme, the woman recognized as the head of an eligible family receives ₹2,000 every month directly in her bank account.
The scheme was introduced to provide regular financial support so that women can independently manage essential household expenses. It also aims to increase women’s participation in financial decision-making within their families and improve their economic security.
31st Installment Successfully Released
The government has now completed the release of the 31st monthly installment under the scheme. Beneficiaries who meet the eligibility criteria can expect the amount to be credited directly to their registered bank accounts linked with the scheme.
This installment follows the successful transfer of the previous 30 monthly payments. With the release of the latest installment, the government has continued its uninterrupted financial assistance to eligible women across Karnataka.
Beneficiaries are advised to check their bank accounts regularly to confirm the credit of the latest payment.
Total Benefit Reaches ₹62,000 Per Beneficiary
One of the biggest highlights of the scheme is the cumulative financial support provided to eligible women. Since each installment carries a payment of ₹2,000, beneficiaries who have received all 31 installments have now received a total of:
31 Installments × ₹2,000 = ₹62,000
This amount has helped countless families manage monthly expenses, including:
- Grocery and food expenses
- Children’s education
- Healthcare and medical costs
- Electricity and utility bills
- Household necessities
- Emergency family expenses
The scheme has become an important source of regular financial support for many low and middle-income households.
More Than ₹2,400 Crore Released in the Latest Installment
For the 31st installment alone, the Karnataka Government has transferred approximately ₹2,400 crore through the Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) system.
The DBT method ensures that the money reaches beneficiaries directly without unnecessary delays or intermediaries. This transparent process also reduces the chances of errors and improves accountability in the distribution of welfare benefits.
Government’s Total Expenditure Crosses ₹74,650 Crore
Since the launch of the Grihalakshmi Yojana, the Karnataka Government has spent around ₹74,650 crore on implementing the scheme.
This large investment reflects the government’s continued focus on improving women’s financial security and supporting economically weaker families. The scheme remains one of the largest welfare initiatives in Karnataka in terms of both the number of beneficiaries and the amount of financial assistance distributed.
Around 1.24 Crore Women Continue to Benefit
According to the latest official figures, nearly 1,24,48,000 women are currently receiving assistance under the Grihalakshmi Yojana.
Every month, the eligible beneficiaries receive ₹2,000 directly into their bank accounts. The regular monthly assistance has become an important source of financial stability for many households across urban and rural Karnataka.
The large number of beneficiaries highlights the wide reach of the scheme and its importance in improving the economic well-being of women.
Opportunity for Eligible Women Who Have Not Yet Received Benefits
Women who are eligible for the scheme but have not yet started receiving the monthly assistance may have another opportunity to apply.
Applicants should ensure that:
- Their application details are correct.
- Their Aadhaar information matches official records.
- Their bank account is active and linked correctly.

- Improve women’s financial independence.
- Support household budgeting.
- Reduce financial stress on families.
- Encourage women to participate in financial decisions.
