The Gruha Lakshmi Scheme is one of the flagship welfare programs launched by the Government of Karnataka to support women financially. Under this scheme, the head woman of a household receives ₹2000 every month directly into her bank account through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT).
29th Installment Release Details
In April 2026, the government has started releasing the 29th installment of the scheme. The payment process is being carried out in phases. In the first phase, beneficiaries from 18 districts have started receiving the amount in their bank accounts. The remaining districts are expected to receive the payment soon.
Which Districts Received the Money?
Due to banking processes and technical reasons, the government releases funds district-wise. Reports indicate that districts such as Bengaluru Rural, Mysuru, Mandya, Tumakuru, Hassan, and a few others have already received the 29th installment. Beneficiaries from other districts need not worry, as the amount will be credited in the coming days.
