Making payments in DBT involves a number of processes; any of which may encounter failure. The failure could be at the level of:

  1. System preparation/ setup (eg. TU-PFMS Agency linkage, Census code linkage etc)
  2. Beneficiary level (eg. incorrect bank account details, bank account inactive etc.)
  3. Benefit level (eg. credit failure)

It is important to identify the exact reason for the failure and solve/ address them to result in a successful payment. The reasons for failure are often mentioned in the beneficiary/ benefit status log in Ni-kshay and also in the corresponding register (beneficiary/ benefit). 

Addressing this error is to be initiated or completed the DBT Maker promptly. Often the DBT Maker themselves may address the error (correcting the bank account number/ IFSC code); but in some cases, they may need the support of the PFMS admin of the corresponding PFMS agency, and the Ni-kshay backend team.
