If you searched for “Rajasthan Free Scooty Yojana 2026” expecting one single scheme covering Class 8 and Class 12 toppers together, here’s the correction worth knowing upfront: there is no standalone Class 8 scooty scheme. What actually exists are two separate, real Class-12-pass merit schemes, each tied to a specific reservation category, plus a third unrelated disability scheme that sometimes gets lumped in under the same “free scooty” umbrella by aggregator sites. This page covers all three accurately, so you apply to the one you’re actually eligible for. Last updated: 10.07.2026.
The three schemes, not one
| Scheme | Who it’s for | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Kali Bai Bheel Medhavi Chhatra Scooty Yojana | SC/ST/EBC/minority/nomadic community girls | Class 12 merit list only |
| Devnarayan Scooty Distribution and Incentive Scheme | MBC category (Gurjar, Raika, Rebari and related communities) | Class 12 merit list, with a cash fallback if you miss the list |
| Mukhyamantri Divyang Scooty Yojana | Persons with 40%+ disability | Disability certificate, not academic merit |
If you’re an MBC-category student, you can apply to Devnarayan or Kali Bai but not both — applying to both triggers an automatic “Duplicate Application” rejection on the SSO portal, which is one of the most common complaints every cycle.
Kali Bai Bheel Medhavi Chhatra Scooty Yojana
Purely merit-based. A limited number of scooties go to the highest-scoring SC/ST/EBC/minority/nomadic girls who passed Class 12 from a Rajasthan board that year. If you’re not inside that merit cutoff, there’s no consolation cash amount under this particular scheme — you either make the list or you don’t.
Eligibility
- General/EWS candidates need roughly 65%+ in RBSE Class 12; reserved-category candidates need roughly 50%+ — exact cutoffs shift year to year based on the merit list, so these are indicative, not guaranteed thresholds.
- Family annual income below ₹2.5 lakh.
- Science-stream applicants must be enrolling in a Polytechnic or Technical Diploma/B.Tech course to qualify under this stream.
- You must not have already received a scooty or similar incentive at the Class 10 stage under a related scheme.
Devnarayan Scooty Distribution and Incentive Scheme
Same Class 12 merit-list mechanism, but for MBC (Most Backward Class) students, and with an actual fallback: if you clear the eligibility bar but miss the roughly 4,240-seat merit cutoff for a physical scooty, you’re not left with nothing. You get ₹10,000/year during your Graduation and ₹20,000/year during Post-Graduation instead, paid as an incentive rather than a vehicle.
Eligibility
- MBC category — Gurjar, Raika, Rebari, and the other communities notified under Rajasthan’s MBC list.
- Class 12 pass with 50%+ marks.
- Family income and residency conditions broadly mirror the Kali Bai scheme.
Mukhyamantri Divyang Scooty Yojana (a different scheme entirely)
This one has nothing to do with academic toppers. It’s for persons with 40% or higher disability, regardless of marks. The 2026 application window ran 12 June to 31 July 2026 via the SSO portal. If your interest is disability-based rather than merit-based, this is the scheme to check, not the two above.
How to apply (Kali Bai / Devnarayan)
- Log in to the Rajasthan SSO Portal at sso.rajasthan.gov.in with your SSO ID.
- Applications typically open in the July–September window, once RBSE Class 12 results and merit calculations are finalised for the year — watch the portal after your board result is out.
- Fill in your Class 12 marksheet details, caste category, income certificate, and college admission (bonafide) details if you’re continuing to Polytechnic/Diploma/B.Tech.
- Upload Aadhaar/Jan Aadhaar, caste certificate, income certificate, college bonafide certificate, and bank account details.
- Submit — a provisional merit list is published first, with a window to raise objections, followed by the final merit list.
Documents needed
- Aadhaar or Jan Aadhaar card
- Class 12 marksheet
- Caste certificate (SC/ST/EBC/minority/nomadic for Kali Bai; MBC for Devnarayan)
- Income certificate (below ₹2.5 lakh/year)
- College/institution bonafide certificate for continuing studies
- Bank passbook
Frequently asked questions
Is there really a Class 8 scooty scheme in Rajasthan?
No standalone Class 8 scooty scheme was found in any current official source. If you’ve seen this claim elsewhere, it’s likely a mix-up with the Class 12 schemes above. This page will be corrected further if an official Class 8 component is ever notified.
Can I apply to both Kali Bai and Devnarayan?
Only if your category genuinely qualifies for both, which is rare. Most MBC students should pick one — applying to both usually gets auto-rejected as a duplicate.
What if I miss the Kali Bai merit list?
Unlike Devnarayan, Kali Bai does not have a confirmed cash fallback for missing the merit cutoff based on current information — treat it as merit-list-or-nothing unless a future notification adds one.

If you’re waiting on your Class 12 result and planning around this, keep your SSO ID and caste/income certificates ready now — the merit list window moves fast once results are declared, and a missing document at that stage can cost you the deadline entirely.
