e-Shram Card Installment Details
Many workers ask about the ₹1,000 installment linked to the e-Shram Card. It is important to know that the e-Shram Card itself does not pay any direct cash. The ₹1,000 amount comes from state-level cash schemes such as the UP Kamgar Bhatta, MP Mukhyamantri Jan Kalyan Sambal Yojana, or Bihar migrant worker aid, which use the e-Shram UAN to find eligible workers. Here are the key points.
- No direct payment from e-Shram: e-Shram is a database identity, not a direct benefit transfer scheme. Any ₹1,000 claim refers to a state-level scheme, not a central e-Shram payment.
- State schemes: To get the ₹1,000, you need both the e-Shram UAN and the state-specific enrolment for the scheme running in your state.
- First installment: The first installment list for some state schemes was released in January 2023.
