Annapurna Bhandar Application Status and Rejections

Submitted your Annapurna Bhandar Yojana application? Here's how to check where it stands — and what to do if something goes wrong.

How to check status

Go to socialregistry.wb.gov.in.
Log in with your registered mobile number and OTP.
Open the application status section and enter your application/reference number.

You'll see a stage like submitted, under verification, approved, or rejected.

What each status means

Under verification: normal — officials are cross-checking your documents against records. Give it time.
Approved: you're enrolled; the monthly transfer goes to your registered bank account via DBT.
Rejected: check the reason shown. The most common: name/DOB mismatch with Aadhaar, invalid or non-DBT bank account, or an illegible document upload.

If you're rejected

Fix the underlying issue first (correct the document, update the bank account), then re-apply or file a correction through the portal as the current process allows. Don't pay anyone to "fix" a rejection — legitimate corrections happen on the portal only.

Not receiving payments after approval?

Verify your bank account is still Aadhaar-seeded and DBT-enabled — banks occasionally deactivate seeding after KYC lapses. A quick visit to your branch resolves most payment failures.
