The Benazir Taleemi Wazaif Stipend Increase has brought great news for students and their families in 2025. The Government of Pakistan officially raised stipend payments for students enrolled in the Benazir Taleemi Wazaif program through its recent update. The government has implemented this measure to boost educational opportunities at all levels particularly for families with limited income so children can continue their studies until graduation.
New Stipend Amounts Announced for 2025
Here is the updated stipend distribution according to education levels:
| Education Level | Boys (Quarterly) | Girls (Quarterly) |
|---|---|---|
| Primary (Class 1–5) | Rs. 2,500 | Rs. 3,000 |
| Middle (Class 6–8) | Rs. 3,500 | Rs. 4,000 |
| Higher Secondary (Class 9–12) | Rs. 5,000 | Rs. 5,000 |
The enhanced financial assistance benefits higher secondary school students the most because the previous Rs. 4,500 limit has been increased to Rs. 5,000.
Updated Stipend Amounts (April 2025)
Starting from April 2025 the new stipend rates became active. The program specifically targets girl education because it provides female students with a slightly higher stipend payment in primary and middle school levels. At the higher secondary education level students receive Rs. 5,000 stipends regardless of their gender to demonstrate that education completion should be gender-neutral.
The Benazir Taleemi Wazaif Stipend Increase applies automatically to students already enrolled in the program. New applicants will receive the updated amount from their first payment onwards.
