12 min readBele Parihara is the crop-loss input subsidy that the Karnataka Revenue Department pays through the Parihara portal into the Aadhaar-linked bank accounts of farmers hit by a natural calamity. To check your payment, open the Parihara payment details page, pick the year, season and calamity, and search by Aadhaar, FRUITS ID, mobile number or survey number. If the status is missing or failed, the checks the portal itself describes are a FRUITS ID, a matching name on the land record, Aadhaar seeding and the bank account status. The portal lists a 24/7 helpline: 080-2235-2828.
What is Bele Parihara in Karnataka?
Bele Parihara means crop-loss relief. In Karnataka it is the input subsidy paid to farmers whose crops are damaged by a natural calamity. The money goes by Direct Benefit Transfer into the farmer's Aadhaar-linked bank account. The Parihara portal, built by the Bhoomi Monitoring Cell of the Government of Karnataka, runs the whole process from loss entry to payment.
The Parihara 2.0 About page says Parihara was developed in-house by the Bhoomi Monitoring Cell in 2016-17. It describes a module for direct transfer of input subsidy to farmers affected by natural calamities such as droughts, floods, landslides, desilting and hailstorms. Before the automated system, village officers collected Aadhaar, bank and crop details by hand, and payments went through the Aadhaar Enabled Payment System.
Parihara 2.0 is the newer, automated version. The About page says it connects with Bhoomi (land records), FRUITS (the state farmer registry), crop survey data and the Khajane-2 treasury system. That list tells you what the system looks at before it pays you: your land record, your farmer registry entry, the crop recorded for the season and your bank details.
The home page carries the name of the Bhoomi Monitoring Cell in its footer. For a farmer the practical point is where to go first. The workflow starts with the village accountant and the tahsildar, so these are the first offices to ask when your name is missing from a list.
Bele Parihara is a separate system from crop insurance. A later section sets out the difference and points to our posts on PM Fasal Bima Yojana and RWBCIS.
Who gets Bele Parihara, and who decides the list?
Farmers whose plots are entered as crop-loss plots get Bele Parihara. Officers, not farmers, build the list. Revenue, Agriculture and Horticulture teams assess the loss in the field together. The village accountant then enters the affected crops, and the tahsildar, assistant commissioner and deputy commissioner approve the entries one after another.
The About page lists this as steps one and two. Step one is a joint field check by the three departments to establish what actually happened on the affected plots. Step two is the entry of affected crops by the village accountant, with verification and approval by the tahsildar, assistant commissioner and deputy commissioner in sequence.
Step three is automatic. The system pulls farmer and crop details from the state farmer registry and land records and checks them against the crops approved by the deputy commissioner. So three things must line up for you: your plot is in the approved crop-loss entries, you are in the farmer registry, and your crop matches what was approved.
The official pages opened do not publish a land-size limit, a caste condition or an income condition. They also print no amount per hectare. If someone quotes a limit or a rate, ask the tahsildar for the government order for that calamity and season, and read it before you rely on the figure.
How is the Bele Parihara amount decided?
Parihara works out the amount with predefined payment rules and then produces a vetted greenlist of eligible beneficiaries. The official pages opened do not print a rate per hectare. The rates sit in the government order for each calamity and season, so ask your tahsildar office for that order if you want to check an amount.
The About page says that in step five, predefined payment rules calculate the subsidy amounts and generate the greenlist. It does not say what the rules are. A farmer can see the end result in the village-wise report, which shows the crop, the crop category, the extent of crop loss and the payment amount side by side.
That table is the best check you have. Compare your row with a neighbour who grew the same crop and lost a similar area. If the amounts look far apart, note both entry IDs and raise a grievance of the type "Incorrect Payment". A later section explains the grievance form.
Do not trust amounts forwarded on WhatsApp or printed in a news story as if they were your entitlement. The portal shows what has been calculated for your own entry, and that is the figure that counts.
How does a crop-loss claim travel from the field to your bank?
It moves through seven stages on the Parihara portal: crop loss reporting, memorandum data entry, draft list in the village, citizen objections, final list, greenlist and DBT payment, and finally treasury and bank credit with a response sent back. Each stage has a named officer, so you always know whose desk the file is on.
The official workflow page sets out the chain. Here it is as a table, in plain words.
| Stage | What happens | Who does it |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Crop loss reporting | Damaged crops are recorded for affected fields. After approval the village crop list is frozen as the Crop Master, which limits which crops can be entered later | Village administrative officer (VAO), then Tahsildar |
| 2. Memorandum data entry | Survey number and owner details are entered. If FRUITS has the data it returns the FID and crop details; otherwise the loss is entered by hand from the Crop Master | VAO, FRUITS API |
| 3. Draft memorandum and village list | Drafts are approved and the draft beneficiary list is displayed at the village chawdi or gram panchayat | Tahsildar, Assistant Commissioner, Deputy Commissioner |
| 4. Objections and corrections | Citizens complete e-KYC on the objection portal and submit corrections; the VAO updates entries and officers approve or reject | Farmer, VAO, Tahsildar, AC, DC |
| 5. Final memorandum and list | Final reports are approved and the village-wise list is republished at the chawdi. This list is the basis for DBT payment | Deputy Commissioner, Tahsildar |
| 6. Greenlist and DBT payment | Parihara generates the Green List; FRUITS checks Aadhaar seeding; the DBT system checks NPCI status; the Deputy Commissioner logs in with an OTP, verifies and approves | Parihara, FRUITS, DBT, Deputy Commissioner |
| 7. Treasury, banks and response | Khajane-2 generates bills and sanction orders; the treasury instructs RBI; banks credit accounts; success and failure responses flow back to Parihara | Treasury, RBI, banks |
Two things follow from this. First, a farmer has a say in stage four, while the draft list is public. Second, a payment can stop at stage six if the Aadhaar or bank checks fail, and nobody in the village will see this unless you look at the status page yourself.
The workflow page says that after stage seven, beneficiaries and officers can view payment status and village-wise response reports on the public portal. That is why checking the portal, not waiting for a phone call, is the right habit.
Why do you need a FRUITS ID for Bele Parihara?
Because Parihara creates a unique entry for a farmer only when a FRUITS ID exists. The official workflow page says this in stage two. FRUITS is the state farmer registry, and Parihara also uses it to return your crop details and to check Aadhaar seeding before payment.
The FRUITS site describes the system as a software application developed by the DPAR e-Governance department with NIC. It exists because farmers often submit the same documents to many departments, and FRUITS builds one verified farmer database instead. Agriculture, Horticulture, Sericulture, Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Science, and Fisheries are the listed stakeholder departments.
The workflow page adds a second use. When the village accountant enters your survey number and owner details, FRUITS returns the FID and crop data if it has them. The tahsildar reviews cases in which the name on the RTC and the name of the FRUITS beneficiary do not match. So the name on your land record and the name in FRUITS should read the same, spelling included.
If you have not registered, our guide to FRUITS ID registration in Karnataka gives the steps. The same ID helps with other state schemes such as the Krishi Bhagya farm pond subsidy and the Chief Minister Krishi Vistara Yojana, so the effort is not wasted.
How to check Bele Parihara payment status step by step
Open the Parihara payment details page, choose the year, season and calamity type, then search by Aadhaar number, Farmer ID (FID), mobile number or survey number. The page returns the records that match. Keep your Aadhaar number and survey number at hand. The page works as a simple search form, so a phone browser is enough.
The payment details page I opened on 12 November 2026 has three drop-downs, Year, Season and Calamity Type, and a "Search By" choice of Aadhaar Number, Farmer ID (FID), Mobile Number or Survey Number. Each choice opens its own small form with a Fetch button. The results table starts with the last four digits of Aadhaar, the name and the Farmer ID. The About page confirms that farmers can check payment status with mobile number, FRUITS ID, survey number or Aadhaar.
- Open parihara.karnataka.gov.in and go to the payment details search.
- Select the Year, the Season and the Calamity Type that match your claim.
- Press the Get Data button, then choose how you want to search: Aadhaar number, Farmer ID, mobile number or survey number.
- For Aadhaar, FID or mobile, type the number and press Fetch.
- For a survey-number search, choose district, taluk, hobli and village in turn, then enter the survey number and select the surnoc and hissa number, and press Fetch.
- Read the row for your name. If the result is empty, repeat with a second search method and check that you picked the right calamity and season before you assume you are left out.
Searching by survey number is the best option when the Aadhaar or mobile number in the record may differ from the one you use now. Searching by FID is the quickest when you know your Farmer ID. Try all four before you decide that no record exists.
Which Parihara report should you open for an older year?
The home page keeps two reports. The "New Report" covers the 2023 Kharif (drought) season onward. The "Old Report" covers payments before that season and links to the old Parihara website. If your claim is from an earlier year and the new page shows nothing, use the old report before you assume the record is missing.
The Parihara home page also lists a Payment Abstract Report, a Data Entry Progress Report, a Citizen Objection Login and a Village Wise List. The abstract and progress reports are summaries for officers and the public. For your own plot, the payment details search and the village-wise list are the two pages that matter.
Always set the year, season and calamity first. The same village can have a flood entry and a drought entry in different seasons, and each one has its own list. Choosing the wrong combination is the simplest reason for an empty result.
How to read the village-wise Bele Parihara list
Select the year, season, calamity, district, taluk, hobli and village, then press Get Report. The report lists every beneficiary in that village with masked Aadhaar, entry ID, name, survey number, crop name, crop category, crop loss extent, payment status, payment date and payment amount. Two buttons filter Payment Failed Cases and Payment Success Cases, and you can export to Excel.
The village report page showed the heading "Parihara Payment Report As On Dated 12-11-2026" when I opened it, so the data is refreshed by date. The table has eleven columns. The table below explains how to use each one.
| Column on the report | What it tells you | How to use it |
|---|---|---|
| Masked Aadhaar | Only part of the Aadhaar number is shown | Match the last digits to your own card |
| Entry Id | The Parihara entry number for your claim | Quote it in every grievance and every phone call |
| Applicant Name | Name of the beneficiary | Check spelling against your RTC and Aadhaar |
| Survey Number | The plot in the entry | Check that every plot of yours that lost a crop is listed |
| Crop Name and Crop Category | The crop and its category entered for the plot | If the crop is wrong, use the objection portal or a "Crop Details" grievance |
| Crop Loss Extent | The area of crop loss recorded | Compare with the area you actually lost |
| Payment Status | Where the payment stands | See the status table in the next section |
| Payment Date and Payment Amount | When money was sent and how much | Match with your passbook entry |
You can also read the report to see whether a neighbour with the same crop and loss area has a different entry. Do not share your full Aadhaar number in village groups. The report shows only a masked number, and you should keep yours private too.
The Failed Cases button is useful for a village helper. It gives a list of every failed entry in the village, so one visit to the bank with a printout can cover several farmers.
What do the Bele Parihara status words mean?
The home page groups payments as Greenlist, Payment Initiated, Payment Successful and Payment Failed. Reading these against the workflow: Greenlist is the vetted list of eligible beneficiaries, Initiated means payment has gone forward for processing, Successful means the credit went through, and Failed means the credit did not go through. The portal does not print longer definitions.
| Status on the portal | What it means in plain words, read from the workflow | What you should do |
|---|---|---|
| Greenlist | You are in the vetted list of eligible beneficiaries that Parihara generates before the Aadhaar and NPCI checks | Confirm now that your Aadhaar is seeded and your bank account is active |
| Payment Initiated | The payment has moved forward for approval and credit | Check the portal again after a few days and look at your passbook |
| Payment Successful | The bank sent back a success response | Match the date and amount with your passbook; if the money is not there, take the date and entry ID to the bank |
| Payment Failed | The bank or the checks sent back a failure response | Check the causes in the next section, fix the one that applies, then file a grievance |
The workflow page says success and failure responses travel back from the banks through the treasury, DBT and FRUITS systems to Parihara. The official pages do not list failure codes. That is why the bank branch can often tell you the exact reason for a failed credit, and you should carry your entry ID and the payment date when you go.
Why is my Bele Parihara payment not received?
The official pages point to these causes: no FRUITS ID, a name mismatch between the land record and FRUITS, an Aadhaar not seeded to the bank account, a bank account that fails the NPCI status check, a wrong crop or area in the entry, or a plot that is not in the approved list. Check them in this order.
| Cause the portal supports | Where the official pages say it | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| No FRUITS ID | Workflow stage 2: the Entry ID is created only when an FID exists | Register in FRUITS and add your land; see the FRUITS guide |
| Name on the RTC differs from FRUITS | Workflow stage 2: the Tahsildar reviews name-mismatch cases | Ask the village accountant and the tahsildar to correct one record; file a "Name Mismatch" grievance |
| Aadhaar not seeded to the bank account | Workflow stage 6: FRUITS checks Aadhaar seeding | Ask the bank to seed your Aadhaar to the account used for DBT |
| Bank account fails the NPCI status check | Workflow stage 6: the DBT system checks NPCI status | Ask the bank how the account stands for DBT |
| Wrong crop or crop area in the entry | Workflow stage 4: citizens can correct crop extent or manually entered crop details | Use the objection portal while the draft list is open, or file a "Crop Details" grievance later |
| Plot missing from the approved list | Workflow stages 3 and 5: only plots in the approved lists reach payment | Look at the village list at the chawdi or panchayat office and raise it with the tahsildar |
| Wrong year, season or calamity selected | The search form needs year, season and calamity | Repeat the search with the right choices |
The portal does not say which cause applies to you. Go through the rows in order: first your FID, then the names, then the bank. Most of these can be settled with one visit to the tahsildar office and one visit to the bank.
How to raise an objection while the draft list is public
Use the citizen objection portal. Press Send OTP, log in with the OTP, complete e-KYC and submit the correction. The workflow page says the village accountant then updates the entry, the tahsildar, assistant commissioner and deputy commissioner approve or reject it, and the status of the objection is shown on the portal.
The objection module opens with a login form and Send OTP and Login buttons. The workflow page describes its use in stage four: after the draft list is displayed in the village, citizens complete e-KYC and submit corrections for crop extent or manually entered crop details. The page marks this as the time to fix a wrong crop or area.
This is the cheapest time to fix a mistake, because a corrected entry goes into the final list. Watch for the draft list at the village chawdi or gram panchayat, and for announcements in your taluk. The About page marks a public review of the greenlist on the e-Chawadi portal as "in pipeline", so the village display and the objection portal are the places to look at present.
Keep your phone with you when you log in, because the OTP goes to your mobile. Do not read the OTP out to anyone who offers to log in for you.
How to file a Parihara grievance if payment is wrong or missing
The Parihara home page has a File Grievance link. The grievance types listed there are Name Mismatch, Crop Details, Incorrect Payment, Not Received and Other. Choose the type that fits, describe the problem with your entry ID and submit. The quick links also show a Track Status option for following up.
A short grievance with facts moves faster than a long one. Write the calamity, season and year, your name as in Aadhaar, the survey number, the entry ID from the village report, the status you see and what you expect to see. For a failed payment, add the bank name and the last four digits of the account number. Keep a screenshot of your status row before you file.
| Grievance type on the home page | Use it when |
|---|---|
| Name Mismatch | Your name differs between the land record, FRUITS and the Parihara entry |
| Crop Details | The crop name or crop loss area in your row is wrong |
| Incorrect Payment | The amount looks wrong when compared with the crop and area |
| Not Received | The status says successful or initiated but money is not in the account, or you are in no list |
| Other | None of the above fits |
The official pages do not publish a time limit for a reply. Do not expect a fixed number of days. If nothing moves, call the helpline and quote the entry ID and the grievance details.
How to fix Aadhaar seeding and bank problems
Go to the bank branch where the account is held, carry your Aadhaar and passbook, and ask the staff to seed your Aadhaar to the account and tell you the account status for DBT. Do this before the next payment round. Parihara checks Aadhaar seeding in FRUITS and NPCI status in the DBT system before it releases money.
The workflow page says this in stage six: the greenlist is generated, FRUITS validates Aadhaar seeding and DBT checks NPCI status before eligible payment records go to the deputy commissioner. It works as a gate, so a farmer who fails the gate is held back even if the crop-loss entry is right.
- Use the account that is in your FRUITS record. If you have changed banks, update FRUITS.
- Ask the bank to confirm in writing or on the passbook that Aadhaar is seeded to the account.
- Check that your name is spelt the same in the bank record, Aadhaar, the RTC and FRUITS.
- Ask for a printed passbook entry after a credit, because an SMS can come late.
- Take the entry ID and the payment date from the village report when you visit the bank about a failed credit.
The same identity and bank checks matter for other payments. Our guide on PM-Kisan instalment status and payment fixes covers the national scheme, and the AgriStack and farmer ID guide explains how farmer identity data is being joined across schemes.
What should you carry to the tahsildar office and the bank?
Carry your Aadhaar, the mobile number you use, your FRUITS ID, survey number with hissa, RTC copy, bank passbook and a printout or screenshot of your Parihara row. These are the details the portal asks for or checks. The official pages do not publish a separate document list, so treat this as practical preparation.
| Item | Why you need it |
|---|---|
| Aadhaar and the mobile number you use | Search by Aadhaar or mobile; OTP login and e-KYC on the objection portal |
| FRUITS ID (FID) | The entry is created only when an FID exists; search by FID |
| Survey number, surnoc and hissa; district, taluk, hobli, village | Search by survey number; matching your plot in the list |
| RTC copy | The name on the land record is compared with FRUITS |
| Bank passbook page | Account number and IFSC for the bank visit about seeding and account status |
| Printout or screenshot of your Parihara row, with entry ID | Lets the tahsildar office and the bank find your claim fast |
At the tahsildar office, ask three questions in this order: is my plot in the approved crop-loss entries, does the crop in the entry match what I grew, and do my names match between the RTC and FRUITS. At the bank, ask two: is my Aadhaar seeded to this account, and what is the account status for DBT.
Keep a note of the crop you actually grew. The workflow page says the Crop Master limits which crops can be entered, so a crop that is not in the village list cannot be entered. If your crop is missing, speak to the village accountant early.
Which helplines and offices can you call?
Call the Parihara call centre on 080-2235-2828, which the portal lists as a 24/7 helpline, or write to bhoomiparihara@gmail.com. The listed office is M S Building, Bengaluru. For FRUITS problems, the FRUITS site lists 080-22208333, 080-22209331 and 080-22209332, and the email fruitshelpdesk@karnataka.gov.in.
| Need | Contact seen on the official page (12 Nov 2026) | Source page |
|---|---|---|
| Parihara payment, list or grievance | 080-2235-2828 (24/7), bhoomiparihara@gmail.com, M S Building, Bengaluru | Parihara home and Contact pages |
| FRUITS registration or land linking | 080-22208333, 080-22209331, 080-22209332; fruitshelpdesk@karnataka.gov.in | FRUITS home page |
| Weather and disaster monitoring (not for payments) | +91 080 67355000; Director@ksndmc.org | KSNDMC home page |
| Field-level help | Village accountant and tahsildar office of your taluk | Parihara workflow page |
The Contact page gives no office hours for visits, only the 24/7 helpline. KSNDMC monitors weather, geological hazards and hydrology and runs a 24x7 interactive helpdesk. It does not pay or track Parihara, so calls about payment go to the Parihara line.
How is Bele Parihara different from crop insurance?
Bele Parihara is paid through the Parihara portal of the Karnataka Revenue side after crop loss is recorded in the village entries. Crop insurance is a separate scheme with its own enrolment, claim process and offices. Each one is checked on its own system, so a status on one portal tells you nothing about the other.
For Parihara, your records are the FRUITS ID, the crop-loss entry for your plot and a seeded bank account, and you check the Parihara portal. For insurance, read our guides on PM Fasal Bima Yojana, RWBCIS and frost damage claims under PMFBY.
The official Parihara pages opened do not say how a farmer who has both is treated. Do not assume either way. If you hold both, ask the tahsildar office in writing how your plot is handled.
Which web address and OTP rules should you follow?
Use only the parihara.karnataka.gov.in address for status checks and enter your Aadhaar number nowhere else. The official pages opened ask for no fee and no agent. Treat anyone who asks for money to "release" a payment as outside the official process, and never share your OTP.
The official portal sits on the karnataka.gov.in domain. Its footer carries the Bhoomi Monitoring Cell name. The objection portal sends an OTP to your own mobile for login. That OTP is meant for you alone, and a helper should read it from your phone only while you sit beside them.
If a link on a forwarded message points elsewhere, do not open it. Go to the Parihara address yourself and use the Track Status link on the home page, or call the 24/7 helpline.
What should you do before the next calamity season?
Get your records ready now: a FRUITS ID with your plots added, Aadhaar seeded to one bank account, matching names on the RTC, FRUITS and bank, and the right crop recorded for each season. Then watch for the draft list in your village. These steps remove the causes of a stuck payment that the portal itself names.
- Check that your FRUITS record shows all your plots and the correct bank account.
- Ask the bank to confirm that Aadhaar is seeded to that account.
- Compare the name on the RTC and in FRUITS; correct any spelling difference through the village accountant.
- Make sure the crop you grew is recorded for the season, since Parihara 2.0 pulls crop survey data as well as land records.
- Save the Parihara helpline and your taluk office number in your phone.
- After a calamity, tell the village accountant about the loss in the same week and ask when the draft list will be displayed.
For schemes you can use in the same year, the live posts on Krishi Bhagya and Krishi Vistara also depend on a correct FRUITS record. For a wider view of central and state aid, see the agriculture subsidy schemes guide and the agri schemes calendar.
What does the Parihara portal not tell you?
The portal does not print the rate per hectare, the reason for a failed credit, the time taken to answer a grievance or the date of the next payment. Do not take any of these from a forwarded message. Ask the tahsildar office for the government order, ask the bank for the failure reason, and keep checking the portal.
It also does not say how a hail, flood or drought entry is valued for a particular crop. What it does show is the row for your entry: crop, category, loss extent, status, date and amount. If that row is wrong, the objection portal and the grievance form are the routes the home page offers.
The About page notes that the earlier manual system depended on village officers collecting Aadhaar, bank and crop details by hand. Parihara 2.0 reduces that by pulling data from Bhoomi, FRUITS and crop survey records. The same design means your own records need to be right in those systems before the calamity, not after.
Conclusion
Bele Parihara reaches you only when your plot is in the approved crop-loss entries, your FRUITS ID exists with a matching name and your bank account passes the Aadhaar and NPCI checks. Check your status on the Parihara payment page with Aadhaar, FRUITS ID, mobile or survey number, read the village report with your entry ID, and use the objection portal or grievance form for wrong details. If you need help, call the Parihara line, 080-2235-2828, and keep your entry ID ready.
