The MahaDBT programme, also known as AapleSarkar DBT (Direct Benefit Transfer), is administered by the Maharashtra government. It consists of 38 post-matriculation scholarships awarded by eight different state government ministries. In order to achieve this, it is necessary to transfer the benefits and subsidies of various social welfare schemes, such as e-Scholarships, pension and disaster relief, directly into the bank accounts of beneficiaries who are residents of Maharashtra state and who fall into one of the various reserved categories.
