Benazir Taleemi Wazaif Rs. 500 Stipend Increase January 2026 Update

Good news is on the horizon for parents across Pakistan! The government has announced a possible raise in educational stipends under the Benazir Taleemi Wazaif Rs. 500 Stipend Increase January 2026 Update. Starting January 2026, families could receive an additional Rs. 500 to support their children’s education. This means a little more help to buy school supplies, cover transportation, and keep students in classrooms.

What Is Benazir Taleemi Wazaif?

Benazir Taleemi Wazaif is an education-focused extension of the Benazir Income Support Programme. It supports families receiving Benazir Kafaalat payments by offering additional cash to help cover school expenses for children aged 4–22.

The program is designed to promote school enrollment and reduce dropouts — especially among girls — by giving quarterly stipends to families who maintain at least 70% school attendance.

New Stipend Amounts in 2026 (Expected)

If the Rs. 500 raise is approved, the updated quarterly payments may look like this:

• Primary (Grades 1–5): Boys – Rs. 2,000 | Girls – Rs. 2,500
  
• Secondary (Grades 6–10): Boys – Rs. 3,000 | Girls – Rs. 3,500
  
• Higher Secondary (Grades 11–12): Boys – Rs. 4,000 | Girls – Rs. 4,500
  

This increase recognizes the rising cost of education, transport, and supplies.

Who Is Eligible?

To receive the increased stipend:

• You must already be enrolled in the Benazir Kafaalat program
  
• Your child must be between 4–22 years old
  
• The child must be enrolled in school and attend regularly (minimum 70%)
  

Girls are prioritized through slightly higher payments to support gender equality in education.
