Mukhyamantri Yuva Karya Prashikshan Yojana
-
In summary
The Mukhyamantri Yuva Karya Prashikshan Yojana (CMYKPY) is a Maharashtra government scheme that connects eligible candidates with participating establishments for workplace training. The state provides a monthly stipend through direct benefit transfer (DBT), subject to attendance and other scheme conditions.
- Candidates must be aged 18 to 35 years and meet the applicable Maharashtra residence and education requirements.
- The monthly stipend is Rs. 6,000 for Class 12 pass candidates, Rs. 8,000 for ITI or diploma holders, and Rs. 10,000 for graduates or postgraduates.
- Training currently lasts 11 months. The original 2024 scheme provided six months, but the Maharashtra government changed the duration in March 2025.
- Candidates need Aadhaar registration and an Aadhaar-linked bank account for the stipend process.
- Candidates register as training seekers, review available opportunities, apply for suitable roles, and follow the participating establishment's selection and joining process.
If a participating establishment has a separate eligible business funding requirement, it can assess financing independently of CMYKPY and its stipend mechanism.
What is the Mukhyamantri Yuva Karya Prashikshan Yojana?
-
CMYKPY is a Maharashtra government scheme that provides eligible candidates with practical training at participating workplaces. The scheme is intended to provide work experience and improve employability after an eligible qualification.
The Commissionerate of Skill Development, Employment and Entrepreneurship implements the scheme. Participating establishments provide the workplace training, while the state pays the eligible stipend to the trainee through DBT. Attendance recorded during training affects stipend eligibility.
Who can apply for CMYKPY?
-
The main candidate requirements include age, Maharashtra residence, an eligible educational qualification, Aadhaar registration, and an Aadhaar-linked bank account.
Requirement What to check Age 18 to 35 years Residence Resident of Maharashtra Education Class 12 pass, ITI, diploma, graduation or postgraduation, as applicable Aadhaar Candidate must register with Aadhaar Bank account Account must be linked with Aadhaar for stipend payment Portal registration Candidate must register as a training seeker The scheme's original government order also contains conditions relating to participation during education, previous apprenticeships, employment, and self-employment. If any of these situations apply, check the current scheme instructions rather than relying on a broad 'fresher' description.
The original scheme order also provides that a candidate may receive the scheme benefit once. If you previously joined the scheme, left early, completed another training programme, or moved into regular employment or self-employment during training, check the applicable instructions for your situation.
How much stipend does CMYKPY pay?
The stipend depends on the candidate's highest eligible educational qualification. The current scheme terms provide the following monthly amounts:
| Qualification | Monthly stipend |
| Class 12 pass | Rs. 6,000 |
| ITI or diploma | Rs. 8,000 |
| Graduate or postgraduate | Rs. 10,000 |
The state pays the stipend through DBT to the trainee's Aadhaar-linked bank account. Registration alone does not trigger payment. Attendance and other applicable conditions must be met. A host establishment can choose to pay an additional amount, but that payment is separate from the state-funded stipend.

How does attendance affect the stipend?
Attendance can affect eligibility for the monthly stipend. The original government order states that a trainee absent for 10 or more days in a month is not eligible for that month's stipend. It also states that a person who leaves during the first month is not eligible for the stipend for that period.
Check how attendance, approved leave, and joining or exit dates are recorded by the participating establishment because these records affect stipend processing.
How long does CMYKPY training last?
-
CMYKPY training currently lasts 11 months. The original July 2024 order specified six months, but the Maharashtra government changed the training period to 11 months through a March 2025 government decision.
The March 2025 decision applies the 11-month period from the candidate's joining date under the revised scheme terms. Check the joining communication and portal record for the dates applicable to your placement.
Does CMYKPY guarantee a job after training?
No. Completing CMYKPY training does not give a trainee a right to permanent employment with the host establishment.
An establishment can consider a trainee for employment after training, but that requires a separate hiring decision. The original scheme order provides for a completion certificate after successful training, so retain the certificate and relevant work records for future applications.

Which establishments can participate in CMYKPY?
-
Eligible establishments operating in Maharashtra can register on the CMYKPY portal and offer training opportunities. The establishment must meet the scheme's applicable registration, workforce, compliance, and intake requirements.
Employer check What to verify Location Establishment operates in Maharashtra Portal registration Establishment is registered on the CMYKPY portal as an employer Workforce Applicable workforce requirement under the scheme Registrations and records Relevant EPF, ESIC, GST, incorporation, DPIIT, Udyog Aadhaar or other records requested for the organisation category Training intake Permitted number of trainees under the applicable scheme limits Training role Role, location, responsibilities, and training requirements are clearly stated The portal's requirements can differ by organisation category. Check the current employer registration instructions before creating a training opportunity. Avoid applying a requirement from an older scheme order as a universal current rule.
What should candidates prepare before registering?
Candidates should keep the information needed to create their training-seeker profile and receive the stipend ready. The exact documents requested can depend on the current portal process and the selected opportunity.
| Information or record | Why it is needed |
| Aadhaar details | Registration and identity verification |
| Mobile number and email address | Account access and scheme communication |
| Educational records | Qualification verification and stipend category |
| Maharashtra residence details | Checking the residence requirement |
| Aadhaar-linked bank account | Receiving the stipend through DBT |
Do not assume that a PAN card, cancelled cheque, or one specific domicile document is mandatory for every candidate unless the current application or opportunity requests it.
How do candidates apply online?
Candidates can apply through the dedicated CMYKPY portal by registering as a training seeker, completing their profile, selecting a suitable opportunity, and following the participating establishment's selection process.
- Open the official CMYKPY portal and select the training-seeker registration option.
- Enter Aadhaar and contact details and complete the required verification.
- Add educational qualifications and other profile information requested by the portal.
- Review available training opportunities, including the role and location.
- Apply for opportunities that match your qualification and interests.
- Follow any shortlisting, interview, and joining instructions issued through the process.
- After joining, check that attendance and bank details are recorded correctly for stipend processing.
Submitting an application does not guarantee selection. The participating establishment reviews candidates against its available training opportunities.
How do employers register and offer training?
Participating establishments use the CMYKPY portal to register and publish training opportunities. The registration process requires organisation information, location, contact details, and other records applicable to the establishment.
- Register the establishment through the employer section of the CMYKPY portal.
- Provide the organisation information and registrations requested for the applicable category.
- Confirm the permitted training intake and role requirements.
- Publish the training opportunity with the work location, role, and training responsibilities.
- Review applicants and follow the portal's selection and joining process.
- Record trainee attendance accurately because attendance affects stipend payment.
What costs should candidates consider for CMYKPY?
CMYKPY provides a stipend to eligible trainees, but candidates can still incur personal costs while participating. These should not be confused with official scheme fees.
| Cost area | What to consider |
| Application | Use the current CMYKPY portal instructions to check whether any fee is displayed for the candidate application. |
| Travel | Daily travel to the participating establishment can create a personal expense. |
| Food and other daily expenses | Costs depend on the training location and the candidate's circumstances. |
| Documents and connectivity | Printing, internet access, or other administrative expenses can arise during registration or joining. |
The monthly stipend is a scheme benefit rather than a reimbursement of every personal expense. Plan for any gap between the stipend received and your actual participation costs.
What happens after you are selected?
Selection is followed by joining and workplace training. The stipend process depends on attendance and the scheme's other conditions.
- Complete the joining requirements communicated by the participating establishment.
- Confirm that your Aadhaar-linked bank account details are correct.
- Attend training according to the agreed schedule.
- Check that attendance is recorded correctly.
- Track stipend credits through your bank account.
- Keep your completion certificate and relevant training records after successful completion.
What if your application or stipend needs attention?
First check your CMYKPY portal account for application, selection, joining, and attendance information. If a stipend is delayed, verify that the bank account is Aadhaar-linked and ask the host establishment whether attendance was recorded correctly.
The official scheme information directs candidates and employers to their nearest District Skill Development, Employment and Entrepreneurship Guidance Centre. The scheme information also lists the helpline number 1800 120 8040. Keep your registration and placement details available when seeking assistance.
What should you consider before applying for CMYKPY?
Check your eligibility, qualification, residence status, Aadhaar-linked bank account, and the available training opportunities before applying. Also consider the location, role, attendance requirements, stipend category, and likely personal travel costs.
For example, a hypothetical 24-year-old graduate in Pune who meets the scheme's eligibility requirements could compare available roles by location and training responsibilities before applying. If selected, the candidate would receive the graduate stipend of Rs. 10,000 per month subject to attendance and other applicable conditions.
Can a participating establishment use a Bajaj Finance Business Loan?
CMYKPY is a Maharashtra Government training and stipend scheme. A Bajaj Finance Business Loan is a separate commercial financing product and is not part of CMYKPY. A participating establishment can assess the business loan separately for eligible business expenses, subject to applicable eligibility, credit assessment, and loan terms.
Bajaj Finance offers loan amounts from Rs. 2 lakh to Rs. 80 lakh, business loan interest rates from 14% to 23.50% per annum, and repayment tenures from 12 months to 96 months. The product is unsecured, so collateral is not required under the stated product terms.
This financing does not replace the CMYKPY stipend, does not fund the government scheme, and does not affect a candidate's eligibility or selection. The establishment should assess any borrowing separately from its participation in CMYKPY.
How does a participating establishment apply for a Bajaj Finance Business Loan?
- Start the application: Go to the Bajaj Finance Business Loan page and select ‘Check Loan Offer’. Enter the mobile number and verify it using OTP.
- Provide details: Enter personal and business information, including name, PAN, date of birth, PIN code, and banking information.
- Choose the loan requirement: Enter the required amount and select Term Loan, Flexi Dropline, or Flexi Hybrid Term Loan.
- Select the repayment tenure: Choose a tenure from 12 months to 96 months.
- Review and submit: Check the application details and submit the application for assessment.
