The Maharashtra government has approved the release of over Rs 51.68 crore to clear long-pending post-matric scholarship and freeship dues for 15,252 students from the 2018–19 academic year.
As per a Government Resolution issued on April 30 by the Other Backward Bahujan Welfare Department, the funds will address pending and excess disbursals made through the MahaDBT portal, helping regularise discrepancies in the Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) pool account.
The sanctioned amount of Rs 51.68 crore will benefit students from OBC, VJNT, and SBC categories under various scholarship schemes. The bulk allocation—Rs 45.81 crore—has been earmarked for OBC students (15,103 beneficiaries), followed by Rs 5.32 crore for VJNT and Rs 45.61 lakh for SBC students.
The discrepancies date back to the initial rollout of MahaDBT in 2018–19, when the absence of a validation mechanism led to fund mismatches. Of the Rs 120.45 crore processed, Rs 67.96 crore was transferred to the Single Nodal Account, while around Rs 52 crore remained unresolved.
Following a review in February 2026, the state cleared the excess and pending amounts, authorising their transfer to MahaIT’s central pool account for reconciliation and subsequent disbursal.
The funds will be routed through the MahaDBT portal to ensure transparency and timely credit to students’ bank accounts. The Director of Other Backward Bahujan Welfare, Pune, has been tasked with overseeing implementation and compliance.

Over 15.32 lakh candidates have registered for the HSC exams this year across all streams including Science, Arts, Commerce, Vocational, and ITI. Science stream leads with 7.99 lakh students, followed by Arts (3.80 lakh) and Commerce (3.20 lakh). Additionally, 27,378 students are from vocational courses and 4,492 are from ITI.
Last year, the Maha board declared the Class 12 HSC results on May 5 for exams conducted between February 11 and March 11, recording an overall pass percentage of 91.88%. The science stream topped with 97.35%, followed by commerce at 92.68%, while vocational and arts registered 83.26% and 80.52%, respectively.
The Maha board will this year combine the marksheet and certificate into a single document, featuring student photographs for the first time along with a unique QR code for instant verification through its official app. Earlier, the board issued two separate documents -- the marksheet at the time of result declaration and the certificate after about six months -- neither of which included a photograph or a QR code linked to the student’s complete exam record.
The candidate’s name on the newly introduced marksheet-cum-certificate will now follow the format used on the Aadhaar Card, replacing the earlier system where the surname appeared first, followed by the student’s name and then the father’s name.
Explaining the move, Trigun Kulkarni said the decision to merge the Maharashtra Board HSC marksheet and pass certificate into a single document had been under consideration for some time. He added that including the candidate’s photograph will improve identification, while a unique QR code will enable instant verification of authenticity. By scanning the QR code through the official Maharashtra State Board mobile app, users can directly access and confirm a student’s marks in the system — streamlining the process, eliminating the need to approach the board, and reducing the risk of fake marksheets.
The Maha board HSC 2026 marksheets released online today are provisional in nature. Students will need to collect their original Class 12 marksheets from their respective schools a few days after the results are announced, once the board dispatches the hard copies. The final marksheet will detail the subject-wise scores obtained by each student.
Last year, a total of 20,943 students were awarded additional marks in recognition of excellence in sports as well as scout and guide activities.
