Government services and forms vary by state, district, eligibility, and notice. If a form is not listed, ask AshaRatna whether it can be supported.

Use authorised routes and protect personal information

AshaRatna Tech is an independent service provider, not a government office. Government departments decide eligibility, accept applications, and issue certificates or approvals. Aadhaar enrolment and biometrics must be completed at an authorised UIDAI centre. Udyam and e-Shram registration are free on their official portals; their official notices warn against registration charges.

Do not send Aadhaar or PAN images, OTPs, passwords, or bank credentials through ordinary WhatsApp or email. Use an official secure portal or authorised service centre for sensitive information.

Frequently asked questions

Does AshaRatna Tech represent a government department?

No. AshaRatna Tech is independent and does not make government eligibility or approval decisions. The linked official portals are the authority for applications and fees.

No. Any third-party price example is identified as a provider example. AshaRatna confirms its own assistance fee in a written quote before paid work begins.
