How to Register on the iKhedut Portal: Step-by-Step Guide

Applying for agricultural subsidies in Gujarat is easier than ever, but the first step can sometimes be the most confusing: registering on the portal. Whether you are applying for a tractor or a solar pump, you must go through the online application process. This unofficial guide breaks down the steps to successfully register and apply on the official iKhedut website.

Before You Begin

Before sitting down at your computer or visiting the Gram Panchayat, make sure you have the following documents ready. You can find a full list in our Eligibility Criteria guide, but the essentials are:

• Your Aadhaar Card
• Bank Passbook (for the account where the subsidy will be deposited)
• Mobile Number linked to your Aadhaar
• Land Record Details (8-A/7-12)

Step 1: Visit the Official Website

Always ensure you are on the correct, official government website to protect your data. Open your web browser and go to https://ikhedut.gujarat.gov.in.

Step 2: Navigate to Schemes

On the homepage, look for the main menu and click on the "Yojana" (Schemes) tab. This will take you to a page listing various categories of schemes, such as 'Agricultural Schemes', 'Animal Husbandry Schemes', and 'Horticulture Schemes'. Click on the category that matches the subsidy you want.

Step 3: Select Your Scheme and Apply

Find the specific scheme you need (for example, if you want a tractor, look under Agricultural Mechanization, which we detail here). Click on 'Apply'.

The system will ask you a crucial question: "Are you a registered applicant?"

• If you have registered before, select "Yes", enter your Aadhaar and mobile number, and proceed.
• If this is your first time, select "No" and click 'Proceed'.

Step 4: Fill the Application Form

A detailed form will appear. You must fill in:

1. Applicant Details: Name, address, caste category, and Aadhaar number.
2. Bank Details: Bank name, branch, IFSC code, and account number. Double-check this to ensure your Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) doesn't fail!
3. Land Details: Your district, taluka, village, and specific Khata number.

Step 5: Save and Confirm

After filling in all details, click 'Save Application'. Important: Saving is not the final step! You must review the application and click 'Confirm Application'. Once confirmed, you cannot make changes.

Step 6: Print and Submit

Print the confirmed application form. You must sign it (or provide a thumb impression) and attach copies of your Aadhaar, bank passbook, and land records. Submit this physical file to the designated Gram Sevak or Taluka office within the required timeframe (usually 7 days). You can track what happens next by following our Application Status Guide.
