The Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) has started releasing its August 2025 payments under the 8171 system. Each eligible woman is entitled to receive Rs. 13,500 in full — without any deductions. Unfortunately, some beneficiaries still report receiving less than the actual amount due to illegal cuts by agents or middlemen.
If you want to make sure you get every rupee of your payment, this detailed guide will help you avoid scams and secure your full installment.
Why Do Payment Deductions Happen?
Although BISP strictly prohibits deductions, some unauthorized agents or shopkeepers exploit beneficiaries by:
-
Charging “service” or “processing” fees
-
Demanding payment for biometric help
-
Taking a cut before handing over the money
-
Forcing recipients to return part of the payment after ATM withdrawal
These practices are illegal. Every beneficiary has the right to receive the full Rs. 13,500 without any extra charges.
What Is the Official BISP Policy?
The government has clearly stated:
“Every beneficiary must receive the full Rs. 13,500. No one is allowed to deduct even a single rupee. Report any such cases immediately to 8171.”
To ensure transparency in August 2025, BISP has strengthened monitoring by:
-
Assigning verified agents only
-
Allowing ATM withdrawals in select areas
-
Issuing printed receipts at all payment points
-
Making biometric verification mandatory
