Mahtari Vandan November 2026 Kist Date: The Short Answer
As of 2 November 2026, the state government has not announced a date for the 33rd installment (November’s ₹1,000).
What we know:
- The 32nd installment (October) was released by Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai on 8 October 2026 from Durg. About ₹632.40 crore went to 67.38 lakh women.
- There is no fixed date each month. In 2026, payments have come anywhere between the first and third week of the month.
- In August, the government paid the September installment early (on 25 August) because of Raksha Bandhan. So there was no separate payment in September.
Our reading: Based on this year’s pattern, the November installment is most likely to come in the first half of November. This is our reading of past dates, not an official date. Once the government announces it, the news usually comes a day before, with the CM releasing it at a public event.
