📖What is Seekho Kamao Yojana 2026 — Eligibility, Age Limit, Stipend, Last Date & How to Apply?
Mukhyamantri Seekho Kamao Yojana (MMSKY) — also called Seekho Aur Kamao Yojana or Shikho Kamao Yojana — is a Madhya Pradesh state government scheme that places unemployed youth aged 18–29 in registered private companies and government institutions for 1 year of on-the-job training.
During the training, the government pays a monthly stipend of ₹8,000–₹10,000 directly to the trainee's bank account. The hosting company pays an additional 25% or more from their side. Training covers 700+ work areas across IT, engineering, health, banking, hospitality, media, and more.
Important: MMSKY is a Madhya Pradesh state scheme only for MP residents. It is separate from the Central Government's Seekho Aur Kamao scheme (run by Ministry of Minority Affairs). Both share a similar name but have different eligibility, portals, and benefits.
✅Eligibility

Age18 to 29 years — no relaxation for any category
Minimum EducationClass 12 (12th pass) from any recognised board
Maximum EducationNo upper limit — graduates and postgraduates also eligible
Employment StatusMust be currently unemployed (no regular government or private job)
Samagra IDMandatory — MP's family identity system. Register at samagra.gov.in if not available

💰Seekho Kamao Yojana Stipend — How Much Will You Earn?
| Qualification | Monthly Stipend | Govt Pays | Company Pays |
| 12th pass | ₹8,000 | ₹6,000 (75%) | ₹2,000+ (25%) |
| ITI pass | ₹8,500 | ₹6,375 | ₹2,125+ |
| Diploma holder | ₹9,000 | ₹6,750 | ₹2,250+ |
| Graduate & above | ₹10,000 | ₹7,500 | ₹2,500+ |
The government's 75% share is transferred directly to your Aadhaar-linked bank account monthly. Training lasts 12 months — so a graduate trainee can receive up to ₹1,20,000 total over the training period.
🏭Work Areas and Sectors Covered
MMSKY covers 700+ work areas across sectors including IT & Software, Banking & Finance, Engineering & Manufacturing, Health & Medical, Hospitality & Tourism, Media & Arts, Legal & Management, and Agriculture. Companies in Bhopal, Indore, Jabalpur, and Gwalior typically have the most training slots. Browse all available courses at mmsky.gov.in under 'Course Curriculum'.
📅Seekho Kamao Yojana Last Date — Is It Open Now?
MMSKY does not have a single fixed last date — registration opens in rounds based on training slot availability. To check if the current window is open, visit mmsky.gov.in and see if the 'Candidate Registration' link is active. New rounds typically run for 3–4 weeks.
The scheme launched in 2023 with the first batch starting August 22, 2023. The MP government under CM Mohan Yadav has continued the scheme. Always apply through the official portal mmsky.gov.in only — never through third-party agents or websites. Registration is completely free.
Watch Out for Fraud
💡Watch Out for Fraud
Fake websites and WhatsApp groups charge money for 'guaranteed placement' under Seekho Kamao. The official portal is mmsky.gov.in — registration is 100% free. No agent, consultant, or third-party site is involved in this scheme.
📄Documents Required
Aadhaar card, MP domicile certificate, Class 12/Diploma/Degree marksheet and certificate, Samagra ID (mandatory — register at samagra.gov.in), Aadhaar-linked bank passbook, passport-size photograph, and mobile number registered with Aadhaar. Samagra ID is the single most common reason for application failure — get it done first.
🚀After Training — What Certificate Do You Get?
After completing 1 year of training, you receive a State Vocational Training Certificate from the Madhya Pradesh government — issued digitally through the MMSKY portal and verifiable online. Companies are encouraged to offer permanent employment to high-performing trainees after training. Many do convert trainees into regular employees, treating the 1-year period as a working trial.
