ABOUT PMKVY

Biometric Attendance for Skill India

Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana (PMKVY) is a Central Government flagship scheme under 'Skill India' to empower the young population with industry-relevant skillsets. The Aadhaar-enabled biometric attendance system for PMKVY is utilised to mark the attendance of enrolled candidates and carry out their registration procedure accurately.

The Aadhaar Enabled Biometric Device authentication system ensures that only genuine registered students mark attendance - eliminating ghost enrolments and phantom beneficiaries that can compromise the scheme's integrity and fund utilisation.

HOW IT WORKS

PMKVY Biometric Attendance Process Flow

Enrolment & Registration

Candidates register at PMKVY training centres. Aadhaar-based eKYC via biometric fingerprint scanner verifies and onboards each student into the PMKVY portal.

Daily Attendance Marking

Students scan their fingerprint at each session start and end. The biometric device authenticates against UIDAI, records the time-stamp and syncs with the PMKVY attendance server.

Certification & Reporting

Verified attendance data feeds into the assessment and certification workflow - ensuring only genuinely trained candidates receive PMKVY skill certificates and incentives.

What is PMKVY and why is biometric attendance required?

PMKVY (Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana) is the Government of India's flagship skill development scheme under Skill India. Biometric attendance is mandated to prevent ghost enrolments, ensure genuine training participation, and validate eligibility for certification and monetary incentives.

Is the MFS110 officially certified for PMKVY?

Yes. Mantra MFS110 holds UIDAI L1 RD Service certification and STQC approval - both mandatory for biometric devices used in government Aadhaar-based applications including PMKVY attendance systems.

Can trainees with worn or damaged fingerprints use biometric devices?

Yes. The MFS110's advanced optical sensor accommodates a wide range of fingerprint conditions including dry, worn or faint prints common among skilled trades workers. Alternatively, the MIS100V2 iris scanner provides reliable fallback authentication.

How does the biometric data reach the PMKVY portal?

The device authenticates the trainee against UIDAI via encrypted L1 RD Service. The authentication result along with timestamp and session data is transmitted to the PMKVY Smart system in real-time, maintaining a tamper-proof attendance record.

What is the minimum number of devices required per training centre?

PMKVY guidelines typically require at least one biometric device per training room. Mantra offers flexible bulk pricing for training partners, sector skill councils and state skill missions requiring multiple devices across many centres.
