Terms of Service
The rules for using ladki-bahin-yojana.com and the tools published on it.
Last updated: 21 August 2026
The short version
- This is an independent informational website. It is not the Government of Maharashtra.
- Everything here is general information, not official advice and not a decision on your application.
- The eligibility checker gives an indicative result only. Verify the real requirements officially.
- Scheme rules change. We try to stay current, but we cannot promise every detail is up to date.
- Use the website honestly and lawfully. Do not attack it, scrape it, or send us credentials.
This summary is for convenience only. The sections below are the actual terms.
Acceptance of terms
These Terms of Service govern your use of ladki-bahin-yojana.com (the website). By opening, reading or using any part of the website, including its tools, you accept these terms.
If you do not agree with any part of them, please stop using the website. That is the only consequence — there is no account to close and nothing to cancel.
These terms apply alongside our Privacy Policy and our Disclaimer. Read together, those three pages describe how this website works and what you can and cannot expect from it.
About this website
ladki-bahin-yojana.com is an independently operated informational website about Mukhyamantri Majhi Ladki Bahin Yojana. It exists to explain publicly available information about the scheme in plain language, organised by the questions people actually have.
The website publishes guides on eligibility, documents, the application process, eKYC and benefits, a set of frequently asked questions, and an eligibility checker. You can read all of it without registering, signing in or paying anything.
You can read more on our About page.
Informational purpose
Everything on this website is published for general information only.
Nothing on this website is:
- Legal, financial or professional advice
- An official statement of any government scheme, rule or procedure
- An application, or any part of an application process
- A decision, approval, rejection or entitlement of any kind
- A promise that you will receive any benefit or payment
Reading this website creates no relationship between you and us beyond that of a reader and a publisher. We do not act on your behalf, do not represent you before any authority, and cannot intervene in any application or decision.
If your situation is unusual or the stakes are high, speak to the relevant government office directly, or to a qualified professional. A page written for a general audience cannot account for the particulars of your case.
Eligibility checker
The checker compares the answers you enter against the criteria configured in the tool and displays an indicative result. That result reflects two things only: what you typed, and how the tool is configured. It reflects nothing about your actual application, your documents, or any decision by any authority.
In particular, please understand that:
- A positive result does not mean you will be approved, and does not guarantee any benefit
- A negative result does not mean you are barred from applying, and does not prevent you from applying
- Using the checker does not submit an application, register you anywhere, or notify any office
- The criteria in the tool may not match the criteria in force at the moment you use it, because scheme rules change
You are responsible for verifying the official requirements before acting on any result. Confirm the current position with the official portal for the scheme, the relevant government notification, or your local Anganwadi, gram panchayat or municipal ward office. Only the relevant authority can determine eligibility, and it does so after verifying documents — not on the basis of a web tool.
The checker is offered as a convenience for reviewing basic conditions before you spend time and money collecting papers. Use it in that spirit.
Accuracy of information
Government scheme requirements, eligibility conditions, application procedures, accepted documents, benefit amounts and payment timelines can all change. For this scheme, several of them already have — through government resolutions, departmental circulars and administrative decisions taken at different times.
We aim to provide accurate and useful information, and we correct errors when we learn of them. However, we cannot guarantee that every detail on this website remains current, complete or correct at all times. A page you are reading today may describe a rule that was amended after it was written.
Because of this, information on this website should be treated as general guidance and verified through official government sources before you act on it — before you pay for a certificate, travel to an office, or submit a form.
If you find something on this website that is outdated or wrong, please tell us. Include the page address and, if you can, an official source. Corrections from readers are genuinely useful, and we would rather fix a page than defend it.
No government affiliation
We state this plainly because it matters to the people who use this website. A domain name containing a scheme name can look official at a glance, and some visitors arrive expecting a government portal. This is not one.
Specifically:
- We use no government logos, seals, emblems or official branding, and do not represent any department or authority
- We cannot accept, submit, edit, withdraw, track, approve or reject any application
- We cannot issue, verify or correct any certificate, record or payment
- We cannot influence any decision taken by any government office
- We charge nothing, and no person or agent is authorised to collect a fee on our behalf
Any reference on this website to a scheme, department or official process is descriptive — it identifies what is being explained. It does not imply any association with, or approval by, the body named.
If anyone asks you for money to submit your application in our name, treat it as a warning sign. Applying through official channels is free.
User responsibilities
Using this website is simple, and so are the responsibilities that come with it.
Answer the checker honestly
Enter accurate information when using the eligibility checker. The tool can only work with what you give it, so an inaccurate answer produces a meaningless result — and the only person misled by it is you.
Verify through official sources
Confirm important information — rules, documents, deadlines, amounts — through the official portal or your local government office before acting on anything you read here.
Use the website properly
Use this website lawfully and for its intended purpose. Do not misuse it, disrupt it, or use it in a way that interferes with other visitors.
Do not attempt unauthorised access
Do not try to access any part of the website, its server, or any connected system that is not made publicly available to you.
Never submit credentials
Do not enter or send Aadhaar numbers, OTPs, passwords, bank account numbers or similar credentials anywhere on this website or in any message to us. We never ask for them and have no use for them.
Take your own decisions
Decisions about applying, collecting documents or spending money are yours. This website supports those decisions with information; it does not make them for you.
Prohibited use
You agree not to use this website in any of the following ways.
- Breaking any applicable law, or encouraging or helping anyone else to do so
- Attempting unauthorised access to the website, its hosting, its database, or any connected system or account
- Probing, scanning or testing the security of the website, or bypassing any security or access measure
- Introducing viruses, malware, or any other harmful or disruptive code
- Overloading or disrupting the website, its infrastructure, or other visitors’ use of it, including through automated requests
- Scraping, harvesting or systematically copying content from this website, whether by automated means or otherwise, except as permitted in Section 10
- Copying, republishing or redistributing our content as your own, or in a way that presents it as official government material
- Presenting yourself as connected with this website, or with any government body, when you are not
- Using this website, or its name, to collect money from anyone, to offer paid application services, or to mislead people about the scheme
- Uploading or sending unlawful, abusive, misleading or fraudulent content through any form or contact channel
We may restrict or block access where use of the website appears to breach these terms, threatens its security or availability, or puts other visitors at risk. Where conduct appears unlawful, we may report it to the appropriate authorities.
External links
This website links to other websites, including official government portals, notifications and third-party resources. These links are provided for your convenience, and because official sources are where important information should be verified.
We do not control external websites. We are not responsible for their content, accuracy, availability, security, advertising or privacy practices, and their content may change at any time without our knowledge. A link is not an endorsement of the site, its owner, or anything it says or sells.
Once you follow a link and leave this website, these terms and our Privacy Policy no longer apply. The other website has its own terms and its own privacy policy, and your use of it is between you and that website.
Please check the address in your browser bar before entering personal details anywhere. A link found in search results, a message or social media may not lead to the official portal it appears to be.
If you find a broken link on this website, or a link that now leads somewhere inappropriate, please let us know.
Intellectual property
The original content published on this website — the written guides, explanations, FAQ answers, page design, layout and the code behind our tools — is our work and is protected by applicable copyright law.
What you may do
You may read, print and share pages from this website for your own personal, non-commercial use. You may quote a short extract in a discussion, article or post, provided you attribute it to ladki-bahin-yojana.com and link back to the page you took it from. Helping someone by sending them a link is always welcome.
What you may not do
You may not copy, republish, translate, sell or systematically reproduce substantial parts of this website without our written permission — including republishing our guides on another site, whether or not you name us. You may not present our content as official government material, and you may not use our name, wording or design in a way that suggests any government connection or endorsement.
Government and third-party material
Scheme names, official terminology, and any government notification or portal content referred to on this website remain the property of the respective authority. Facts about the scheme itself are not ours to own; our explanations of them are. Other names, marks and logos mentioned belong to their respective owners, and are referred to only for identification.
Disclaimer of warranties
This website and everything on it are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
In particular, we do not warrant that:
- The information on the website is accurate, complete, current or suitable for your particular situation
- The website will be available without interruption, delay or error
- Any defect, error or broken feature will be corrected within any particular time
- The website or its server is free of viruses or other harmful components
- Any result produced by the eligibility checker matches the determination any authority would make
We do not warrant any outcome from using this website — including that an application will be accepted, that a payment will be received, or that any amount or timeline mentioned will apply to your case. Those outcomes rest entirely with the relevant authorities.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of, or inability to use, this website. This includes loss of time, money, opportunity or expected benefit, and includes indirect or consequential loss.
This applies, without limitation, to loss or damage arising from:
- Reliance on any information published on this website
- Any result shown by the eligibility checker, or any decision taken because of it
- Information that has become outdated because scheme rules changed
- Any application being delayed, rejected, or not resulting in a payment
- Any error, interruption or unavailability of the website
- The content, conduct or practices of any external website reached through a link
- Any act of a third party who claims a connection with this website without authorisation
Nothing in these terms limits any liability that cannot lawfully be limited. Where liability cannot be excluded entirely, it is limited to the minimum permitted by applicable law. Because this website is provided free of charge and we receive no payment from you, no refund or compensation arises from its use.
These terms are governed by the laws applicable in India, and any dispute relating to this website is subject to the jurisdiction of the competent courts in India.
Changes to the website
This website is maintained on an ongoing basis. We may add, edit, reorganise, correct, replace or remove content, pages and tools at any time, without notice.
Content changes most often when scheme rules change or when we find an error, and correcting a page promptly matters more than preserving what it said before. Tools may also be changed, temporarily disabled or withdrawn — for maintenance, or because their criteria need updating.
We may also suspend or discontinue the website, in whole or in part, at any time. We are not liable to you for doing so.
Changes to these terms
We may update these Terms of Service from time to time — for example, if we add a new tool, change how the website works, or need to state something more clearly.
When we do, the revised version is published on this page and the date at the top is changed. Continuing to use the website after that means you accept the updated terms, so it is worth checking this page occasionally. If a change is significant, we will try to make it noticeable rather than quiet.
If any part of these terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the rest continues to apply.
Contact
If you have a question about these terms, want to report a problem with the website, or want to request permission to reuse content, please get in touch.
For anything about an application, an approval, a payment or a government record, we are not the right people to ask — we have no access to those systems. Please contact the appropriate official government channel.
