PFMS, also known as (Public finance management system), formerly known as the central plan scheme monitoring system, is a web-based application. PFMS is used to track down the programs and schemes which are offered by the government.

The system makes it easier for the people to track their scholarships or the other offers available for them in the social sector and the complete tracking of their funds’ disbursement. PFMS also helps students track down their Payment and scholarship status, which are entirely centrally processed in the central sector. The Payment for such centrally processed schemes within the central sector is made through DBT (direct benefit transfer mode).

ABOUT PFMS SCHOLARSHIP PORTAL (PUBLIC FINANCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM)

There are various questions related to pfms, like which scholarships are enlisted under the pfms section, what is the fundamental difference between the centrally processed central sector themes and others. In this post, you will get all the details related to PFMS scholarships.

PFMS or CPSMS started back in the year 2008-09 was initially created to take track of India’s four flagship schemes or scholarships. The names of the initially intended scholarship were-

  • MGNREGS
  • PMGSY
  • NRHM and
  • SSA

These schemes were started in the states like Madhya Pradesh, Punjab, Mizoram, and Bihar. Later, they were linked to the state/ central government along with the other state agencies.

When the tracking of these four schemes was going straight, the government of India launched DBT schemes which were meant to be tracked by the PFMS portal.

What Is the DBT scheme Under the PFMS portal?

DBT schemes were the great solution provided by the government of India to all the citizens. Under the direct benefit transfer schemes, the payments for pensions, scholarships, and other welfare programs were directly transferred to the beneficiary’s accounts through PFMS. The transaction was through IMPS. Therefore, it didn’t take much time to reach the person’s account. In turn, this excellent theme allowed the students to track the status of their online payments online.

PFMS SCHOLARSHIP SCHEME CATEGORIES

The two broad categories of the schemes are-

  • Central sector schemes
