PFMS Scholarship 2023 – About PFMS Portal

Started in the year 2008-09, the CPSMS or PFMS portal was initially intended to monitor four flagship schemes of the Government of India namely, MGNREGS, PMGSY, NRHM and SSA in the states of Madhya Pradesh, Mizoram, Bihar and Punjab. However, it was linked to the financial networks of Central/State Governments and agencies of state governments at a later stage. Furthermore, the Government of India announced the DBT scheme in 2013 which was meant to be implemented through the PFMS portal. 

Under the DBT (Direct Benefit Transfer) scheme, the payments for scholarships, pensions and other social welfare schemes were directly transferred to the ultimate beneficiaries through PFMS (Aadhaar enabled or via NEFT). This, in turn, allows the students to track their payment status online. 

The schemes for which payment status can be availed through the PFMS portal are broadly categorized into two categories namely – 

  1. Centrally-sponsored schemes 
  2. Central sector schemes

PFMS Scholarship 2023 – Central Sector Schemes

The Central Sector Schemes are those schemes, which are 100% funded by the Central Government and are implemented through a central government agency. For example – The scholarship schemes are implemented through the National Scholarship Portal (NSP). These scholarships can also be broadly termed PFMS Scholarships. 

PFMS Scholarship 2023 – Centrally-Sponsored Schemes (CSS)

Unlike the Central Sector Schemes which are 100% funded by the Central Government, the centrally-sponsored schemes include those schemes wherein a percentage of funding is borne by the State Governments. These schemes are implemented through the State Government. For example, the scholarships that are listed under the state schemes section on the NSP portal.
