What do you get under MAMATA?
₹10,000 for the birth of a boy and ₹12,000 for the birth of a girl, paid in instalments to the mother’s bank account. Odisha now runs MAMATA together with the central PMMVY.
The amount is ₹12,000 when the baby is a girl. The budget 2026-27 set aside ₹320 crore for MAMATA and ₹180 crore for PMMVY.

Also check:
- Register the pregnancy and have at least one antenatal check-up within four months of the last period to get the first instalment.
