To apply for the Pink Saheli Smart Card in delhi, you generally need the following documents and details when visiting the centre or submitting an application:
1. Aadhaar Card (Mandatory)
This is the most important document. Your Aadhaar must show your delhi address since the free travel benefit is limited to delhi residents.
2. Proof of delhi Residence
If Aadhaar doesn’t clearly show your delhi address, you should bring another Delhi address proof, such as:
3. Valid ID (Aadhaar or Voter ID)
While Aadhaar is preferable, a Voter ID can also be accepted as identity proof during the process.
4. Passport‑Size Photograph
Carry a recent colour passport‑size photo for the card and KYC verification.
5. mobile Number
A valid mobile number (linked to your Aadhaar) is required for registration, verification (OTP), and future notifications.
6. (Optional) Email ID
An email address is not mandatory but can be helpful for registration updates and communication.
📅 Who Is Eligible?
Women and transgender persons aged 12 years or older who are permanent residents of Delhi are eligible for the card — this is checked with your address proof at the time of application.
📍 Where and How Documents Are Verified
- Cards are issued at designated centres — such as district Magistrate (DM)/Sub‑Divisional Magistrate (SDM) offices and select DTC depots across Delhi.
- Aadhaar‑based eKYC verification is done at the counter, and once documents are verified, the card is typically issued on the spot.
🚌 Quick Usage Note
Once obtained, the pink Saheli Smart Card allows free bus travel on DTC and Cluster buses for eligible women and can be used (with top‑ups) on other transport modes like Metro and RRTS where free travel isn’t applicable.
In summary: When applying for the pink Saheli Smart Card in delhi, be sure to bring your Aadhaar card with delhi address, address proof (if needed), a photo, and a mobile number for quick verification and issuance.
