When your status is stuck or money does not arrive, you want to talk to someone. This page lists only verified official contacts for Annapurna Bhandar and explains the other reliable ways to get help.

Official Annapurna Bhandar helpline

Official email: To be confirmed, check the official notice

Why “to be confirmed”? Different websites show different numbers for this scheme, and some numbers belong to older schemes. Calling a wrong or fake number can waste your time or put your data at risk. We will list a number only after finding it on an official government page or notice.

Get help in person (most reliable)

Take these with you:

• Application ID or acknowledgement slip
• Aadhaar card
• Bank passbook
• Your registered mobile phone

Before you call: check these first

Many problems can be solved without a helpline:

• Status not updating? See status check guide.
• Money not received? See payment status and DBT problems.
• Not sure of payment date? See payment date.
• Login or OTP problem? See portal login guide.

What to say when you call or visit

Keep your call short and clear. You can say:

“My name is ____ (as in Aadhaar). My Annapurna Bhandar application ID is ____. My registered mobile number is ____. The problem is ____ (for example: status pending for 3 months / approved but no payment since ____ / payment failed).”

Write down the date, time, name of the person you spoke to and any complaint or reference number they give you. If you are asked to visit an office or bank, ask exactly which documents to bring.

Which problem goes where

How to write a complaint

If you give a written complaint at your office, include:

1. Your full name (as in Aadhaar)
2. Application ID
3. Registered mobile number
4. Bank name and last 4 digits of account number (never your PIN or OTP)
5. A short description of the problem and since when
6. Date and signature

Keep a photocopy and ask for a receipt.

Follow up on your complaint

• Wait at least 7 to 10 working days after a written complaint before following up.
• Take your complaint receipt with you when you follow up.
• Check your status and payment status online in the meantime. The problem may already be fixed.
• If nothing changes, ask to speak to a senior officer at the same office, politely, with your receipt.

Beware of fake helplines

• Search results and social media can show fake “customer care” numbers.
• No genuine official will ask for your OTP, ATM PIN, UPI PIN or password.
• No one can “release” your payment for a fee.
• Do not install screen-sharing apps on a caller’s instructions.

If you have been cheated, call the national cyber crime helpline 1930 or report at cybercrime.gov.in, and inform your bank immediately.
