Poshan Tracker Login 2026 — Admin, User & PMMVY Login Guide | poshantracker.in

पोषण ट्रैकर लॉगिन — Poshan Tracker Login 2026 Complete Guide for Admin, User & PMMVY at poshantracker.in

Savitri Devi, an Anganwadi Worker in Varanasi’s Sarnath block, had a problem that cost her two full working days.

She had been using Poshan Tracker for over a year — logging weight measurements, home visits, and beneficiary data for 47 families in her centre. Then, in March 2026, she got a new phone. She logged out on the old device but forgot to note her credentials. When she tried to log back in on the new handset, the app kept throwing: “Invalid credentials. Please contact your supervisor.”

Her supervisor pointed her to the admin portal. She opened a browser, typed “poshan tracker login admin” — and landed on three different unofficial-looking websites, none of which was the real one. She entered her details on one of them. Nothing worked.

Two days later, her CDPO flagged her for missing daily entries. The data gap was there on the dashboard — visible to every level above her.

This happens hundreds of times across Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, and Rajasthan every month. The confusion isn’t carelessness. There are genuinely three different portals for Poshan Tracker — one for Anganwadi workers, one for admin/department officials, and one for PMMVY — and most people don’t know which one they need.

This guide fixes that in 10 minutes.

💡  Quick Answer User Login (AWW/Supervisor): poshantracker.in/IntegratedLogin → Mobile number + OTP or MPIN Admin Login (CDPO/DPO/State Officials): admin.poshantracker.in → Email ID + Password + Captcha PMMVY Login: pmmvy.wcd.gov.in → Login ID + Password App Download: Google Play Store → search “Poshan Tracker” (official, free) Helpline: 1800-11-8004 (toll-free) Cost: Free Time: Under 3 minutes


Poshan Tracker Admin vs User vs PMMVY — Which Portal Do You Need?

This is where most people get stuck. All three portals are connected under the same umbrella — Mission Poshan 2.0 — but they serve completely different roles.

Portal URL Who Uses It What You Can Do
User / Worker Portal poshantracker.in/IntegratedLogin Anganwadi Workers, Helpers, Beneficiaries Daily entries, home visit logs, beneficiary tracking
Admin / Department Portal admin.poshantracker.in CDPO, DPO, State Officials, Supervisors Dashboard monitoring, reports, performance data
PMMVY Portal pmmvy.wcd.gov.in AWW/ASHA (for data entry), Beneficiaries (status check) Matru Vandana Yojana registration, instalment tracking
App (Mobile) Google Play Store AWW, Supervisors, ICDS staff All field functions — entries, calculator, home visits

Simple Test — which login do you need?

  1. Are you an Anganwadi Worker logging daily entries? → Use poshantracker.in/IntegratedLogin or the app.
  2. Are you a CDPO, District Programme Officer, or state-level official monitoring performance? → Use admin.poshantracker.in.

Why This Matters in 2026: As of March 2026, over 10.12 crore beneficiaries are registered on Poshan Tracker across 13.96 lakh Anganwadi Centres. The system now feeds directly into national malnutrition dashboards. A login error at the field level means missing data that affects district rankings — and that affects your CDPO’s review.


What Is Poshan Tracker? (Entity Clarity for 2026)

Poshan Tracker is a mobile-based ICT governance tool launched on 1st March 2021 by the Ministry of Women and Child Development (MoWCD), Government of India, developed and maintained through the National e-Governance Division (NeGD).

It operates under Mission Poshan 2.0 (Saksham Anganwadi) — India’s flagship nutrition programme covering children up to 6 years, pregnant women, lactating mothers, and adolescent girls.

Before Poshan Tracker, Anganwadi Workers maintained 11 physical paper registers per centre. That system was slow, error-prone, and gave policymakers no real-time view of ground conditions. Poshan Tracker replaced all of it with a single app available in 24 languages.

Scale as of 2026:

  • 13.96 lakh Anganwadi Centres active on the platform
  • 10.12 crore beneficiaries registered
  • 10.58 lakh Anganwadi Workers trained (Round 1)
  • Cited by The Lancet as the world’s largest mobile phone-based nutrition surveillance system

Three key 2026 upgrades:

  1. APAAR ID integration — children’s school ID (APAAR) can now be created directly from the Poshan Tracker app, even when device location is disabled
  2. SNP opt-in correction — workers can now edit previous Supplementary Nutrition Programme entries, reducing forced data errors
  3. Add Nominee feature — newly added for Pregnant Women, Lactating Mothers, and Adolescent Girl categories, improving beneficiary management continuity

Deep Dive: The Three Login Types Explained

User Login (Anganwadi Workers & Supervisors) — Mobile-First

The worker login is designed for daily field use. Most Anganwadi Workers in states like UP, Bihar, MP, Jharkhand, and Rajasthan access this through the app rather than a browser.

What the user dashboard contains:

  • Daily attendance and AWC opening status
  • Beneficiary list with nutrition status flags
  • Home visit schedule and alerts
  • Growth measurement entry (height/weight calculator)
  • Monthly report submission status
  • APAAR ID creation for enrolled children

When you need it:

  • Every working day — to mark AWC as open and log service delivery
  • For quarterly growth monitoring of children under 5
  • During Poshan Pakhwada campaigns to log participation and activities

Pro tip: Most workers don’t know that the MPIN login (4-digit PIN) is faster than OTP-based login on slow networks. Set your MPIN the first time you log in — you’ll find it under Settings → Set MPIN. Districts in rural Rajasthan and Jharkhand with poor connectivity use this heavily.


Admin Login (Department Officials) — Desktop Portal

The admin portal at admin.poshantracker.in is restricted. Only officials with nominated credentials issued at National, State, District, Project (Block), or Sector level can access it. You cannot self-register here.

What the admin dashboard shows:

  • AWC-level opening rates across your jurisdiction
  • Beneficiary service receipt data by indicator
  • Worker performance metrics — home visits, entries, reporting compliance
  • Stunting, wasting, underweight prevalence by district
  • Incentive eligibility for Anganwadi Helpers (AWH)

When you need it:

  • Monthly performance reviews as CDPO or DPO
  • Preparing data for state-level reporting meetings
  • Monitoring during Poshan Pakhwada and Janandolan campaigns
  • Identifying blocks or sectors with low AWC opening rates

Pro tip: Admin credentials are email+password based, not OTP-based. If you forget your password, the reset link goes to the official email ID registered with your district — not your personal email. Make sure your IT nodal officer has the correct email on record.


PMMVY Login — Matru Vandana Yojana Data Access

PMMVY (Pradhan Mantri Matru Vandana Yojana) has its own portal at pmmvy.wcd.gov.in (also accessed via the older pmmvy.nic.in redirect). This is for AWW/ASHA workers to register beneficiaries and for district officials to track instalment disbursements.

What PMMVY covers:

  • ₹5,000 cash benefit for first living child (3 instalments)
  • ₹6,000 additional benefit for second child, if the second child is a girl (PMMVY 2.0 condition)
  • Eligibility: Women aged 19+, excluding those in Central/State government employment with paid maternity benefits

2026 updates to PMMVY:

  • Facial Recognition System (FRS) mandatory for all new enrolments from May 21, 2025
  • Due List System (from July 2025): Poshan Tracker data now generates a list of probable beneficiaries — 15.81 lakh women were identified through this system by January 8, 2026
  • Integrated Grievance Redressal Module for tracking complaints on the portal

How to Login to Poshan Tracker — Step by Step

For Anganwadi Workers (App Login)

Step 1: Download the app — Open Google Play Store, search “Poshan Tracker,” install the official app by Ministry of Women and Child Development. It is free. Minimum Android version: 5.0.

Step 2: Open the app and select User Login — On the home screen, tap “User Login” (not Admin Login).

Step 3: Enter your registered mobile number — Use the same number that your supervisor or CDPO registered in the ICDS system. If you use a different number, the OTP will not match.

Step 4: Choose OTP or MPIN — Enter the OTP sent to your registered number, or enter your 4-digit MPIN if you’ve set one. OTP expires in 60 seconds — tap “Resend OTP” if it doesn’t arrive.

Step 5: Access your dashboard — After login, your AWC dashboard opens with today’s task list, beneficiary alerts, and pending entries.

That’s it. The whole process takes under 2 minutes on a working internet connection.

What if it doesn’t work?

  • “OTP not received” — Switch off DND mode, set your registered SIM as default for SMS, then retry
  • “Invalid credentials” — Confirm with your supervisor that your mobile number in the ICDS backend is correct; you cannot change this yourself
  • “Already logged in on another device” — Wait 15–20 minutes for the session to expire, then log in again. Always use Logout before switching phones

For Admin / Department Officials (Desktop Login)

Step 1: Open browser, go to admin.poshantracker.in — Use Chrome or Firefox. Do not use third-party sites that mimic this URL.

Step 2: Enter your official Email ID — This is the email ID registered with your district or state ICDS IT cell — not a personal Gmail or Yahoo ID.

Step 3: Enter your Password — Admin passwords are system-issued. If you’ve never received one, contact your District Programme Officer or the state ICDS IT nodal officer.

Step 4: Complete the Captcha — Solve the captcha visible on screen and click Login.

Step 5: View your jurisdiction dashboard — District-level officers see block-wise data. State-level officials see district-wise rollups.

What if it doesn’t work?

  • “Invalid credentials” — Confirm your email with your district IT cell; the password reset link goes only to the registered official email
  • Blank screen after login — Clear browser cache (Ctrl+Shift+Del) and retry in incognito mode
  • Portal not loading — Try after 10 AM; admin.poshantracker.in has scheduled maintenance windows in early morning hours

For PMMVY Login (pmmvy.wcd.gov.in)

Step 1: Go to pmmvy.wcd.gov.in (pmmvy.nic.in redirects here).

Step 2: Click “Login” on the homepage.

Step 3: Enter your Login ID and Password issued by your district WCD/ICDS office.

Step 4: Access the beneficiary dashboard to register new cases or check instalment status.

Step 5: For status check only — beneficiaries can check their instalment status by entering their Application Number without a password.


The Poshan Tracker Login Trap — Where Most Workers Get Stuck

Here is the scenario that plays out thousands of times every year across states like Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, and Madhya Pradesh.

An Anganwadi Worker changes her phone — or the district issues a new device. She installs the app on the new phone. She enters her mobile number. The OTP arrives. She sets a new MPIN. She thinks she’s logged in correctly.

But her old session on the previous phone was never closed. For 15–20 minutes, the system still thinks she’s active on two devices. Any entries she makes during this window may not sync. In some cases, the new session doesn’t fully authenticate until the old one times out.

Why it goes wrong: The Poshan Tracker app ties sessions to device IDs as well as mobile numbers. Switching phones without logging out causes a conflict that the system resolves slowly — not instantly.

How to fix it:

  1. On any device you’re replacing, go to Settings → Logout before handing it over or switching SIM cards
  2. If you’ve already switched without logging out, wait 20 minutes before logging in on the new device
  3. If the problem persists after 20 minutes, ask your supervisor to raise a ticket with the district ICDS IT cell — they can force-clear the session from the backend

The 2026 reform that helps: The MPIN system now sends a confirmation SMS when a new MPIN is set on a device, alerting the worker that a new session has started. This was added to reduce unauthorized access and double-session confusion.


How Poshan Tracker Connects to PMMVY and Janandolan

Poshan Tracker does not stand alone. As of 2026, it feeds into a wider nutrition data ecosystem:

Poshan Tracker → PMMVY Due List: Daily weight and registration entries in Poshan Tracker → system identifies pregnant women approaching first instalment eligibility → PMMVY Due List is auto-generated → AWW follows up for PMMVY registration

This chain now runs automatically. As of January 8, 2026, 15.81 lakh beneficiaries were identified through this system — significantly reducing manual beneficiary hunting by field staff.

Right sequence of operations:

  1. AWW registers pregnant woman in Poshan Tracker app (beneficiary profile)
  2. ANC milestones (first check-up) are logged in the app
  3. PMMVY system detects eligibility and adds her to Due List
  4. AWW visits pmmvy.wcd.gov.in to complete PMMVY registration with bank/Aadhaar details
  5. First instalment disbursed directly to beneficiary’s bank account

Wrong sequence: Many workers try to register on PMMVY directly without first logging the woman’s profile in Poshan Tracker. This means the PMMVY system cannot cross-reference Poshan data — and the application can get stuck in verification.

Janandolan connection: The Jan Andolan Poshan Tracker (search interest up 110% in 2026) refers to Poshan Pakhwada activities being logged inside the app. Districts in Gorakhpur, Patna, and Bhopal now use this feature to record campaign participation directly — replacing paper registers that were previously submitted offline after a 2-week delay.

Sync timing: Poshan Tracker data syncs to the PMMVY Due List system within 24–48 hours of entry. Real-time sync to the admin dashboard happens within the same day.

Common Problems and How to Fix Them

“OTP not received on registered number” → Cause: DND mode active on SIM or wrong SIM set as SMS default → Fix: Disable DND, set registered SIM as default for SMS, tap Resend OTP after 60 seconds

“Invalid credentials — please contact your supervisor” → Cause: Mobile number in ICDS backend doesn’t match what you entered, or old password after phone switch → Fix: Ask supervisor to verify your registered number in ICDS; you cannot change this yourself

“Already logged in on another device” → Cause: Previous session not closed when switching phones → Fix: Wait 15–20 minutes and try again; for faster resolution, supervisor can clear session from admin portal

“App not compatible with your device” → Cause: Android version below 5.0 → Fix: Update Android if possible; if phone is too old, request district to provide a compatible device

“App installed but won’t open / crashes on loading” → Cause: Low storage space or corrupted install → Fix: Free up at least 200 MB storage, uninstall and reinstall from Play Store (don’t use APK files)

“Admin login not working — email and password correct” → Cause: Session conflict or browser cache → Fix: Clear browser cache, try incognito mode; if still failing, contact district IT cell to check account status

“pmmvy.nic.in not opening” → Cause: Old URL — PMMVY moved its primary portal → Fix: Use pmmvy.wcd.gov.in directly; the .nic.in URL may redirect but sometimes shows errors

“PMMVY application stuck in verification” → Cause: Beneficiary not registered in Poshan Tracker first → Fix: Register the woman in Poshan Tracker, wait 24–48 hours for data sync, then attempt PMMVY registration

“Forgot MPIN” → Cause: MPIN not noted after setup → Fix: On login screen, tap “Forgot MPIN/Password” → enter registered mobile → receive OTP → reset MPIN

“Dashboard data shows blank after login” → Cause: Slow server response or incomplete sync → Fix: Pull down to refresh; if blank persists for over 5 minutes, log out and log back in


Before You Login — Checklist

☑ Confirm your registered mobile number with your supervisor before login — the system uses this as your identity anchor
☑ Have your CDPO-issued Email ID and password ready if you need admin access — personal email won’t work
☑ Keep your Android version at 5.0 or above — older phones will reject the app install
☑ Free up at least 200 MB phone storage before installing or updating the app
☑ Set your default SMS SIM to the number registered in ICDS — OTPs will fail on the wrong SIM
☑ Log out on your old device before switching to a new one — double-session errors are avoidable
☑ For PMMVY: register the beneficiary in Poshan Tracker first — then wait 24 hours before attempting PMMVY registration
☑ Note your MPIN immediately after setting it — “Forgot MPIN” recovery requires OTP on registered number
☑ Use only the official app from Google Play Store — do not install APK files from unofficial websites
☑ Bookmark the correct URLs: poshantracker.in, admin.poshantracker.in, pmmvy.wcd.gov.in


Frequently Asked Questions

Poshan Tracker admin login aur user login mein kya fark hai?

Admin login (admin.poshantracker.in) sirf nominated officials ke liye hai — CDPO, DPO, state-level officers. Yahan email ID aur password chahiye. User login (poshantracker.in/IntegratedLogin ya app) Anganwadi Workers aur supervisors ke liye hai — mobile number aur OTP/MPIN se hota hai. Dono alag portals hain. Ek ka password doosre pe kaam nahi karta.

Is the Poshan Tracker app available on iPhone (iOS)?

No. As of June 2026, Poshan Tracker is an Android-only application available on Google Play Store. There is no iOS version. Workers using iPhones must access the web-based login at poshantracker.in/IntegratedLogin from the phone browser.

Poshan Tracker admin login ka password kaise milega?

Admin portal credentials are issued by your district or state ICDS IT nodal officer. They are not self-generated. If you have never received credentials, contact your CDPO or district programme officer. Password resets go to the official email ID on record — not a personal email.

Is pmmvy.nic.in the correct URL for PMMVY login?

The primary PMMVY portal is now pmmvy.wcd.gov.in. The pmmvy.nic.in URL may still redirect in some cases, but official guidance from MoWCD directs users to the .wcd.gov.in address. If pmmvy.nic.in throws errors, use pmmvy.wcd.gov.in directly.

Can I login to Poshan Tracker on two phones simultaneously?

No. The system allows only one active session per login. If you try to log in on a second device without logging out from the first, you’ll see the “Already logged in on another device” error. Always log out before switching devices.

Mera OTP nahi aa raha — kya karu?

First, check that DND is off on your SIM. Second, confirm your registered SIM is set as default for SMS in your phone settings (Settings → SIM → SMS). Third, wait 60 seconds and tap “Resend OTP.” If OTP still doesn’t arrive after 3 attempts, contact your supervisor — they can verify if your mobile number is correctly registered in the ICDS backend.

Poshan Tracker calculator app kya hai?

The Poshan Calculator is a built-in feature inside the Poshan Tracker app — not a separate app. It calculates weight-for-age, height-for-age, and BMI for children based on WHO growth standards. You access it from within the app after logging in. There is no standalone “Poshan Calculator App” — searching for one may lead to unofficial apps that are not reliable.

PMMVY 2.0 mein kitna paisa milta hai?

PMMVY provides ₹5,000 for the first living child, released in instalments tied to registration, ANC check-up, and delivery milestones. Under PMMVY 2.0, an additional ₹6,000 benefit is provided for the second child, but only if the second child is a girl. Eligibility requires the woman to be 19 or older and not in regular Central or State government employment with existing paid maternity benefits.


Contact and Escalation

National Helpline: 1800-11-8004 (toll-free, Monday to Saturday, 9 AM – 6 PM)
Official Poshan Tracker Portal: poshantracker.in
Admin Portal: admin.poshantracker.in
PMMVY Portal: pmmvy.wcd.gov.in
Play Store App: Search “Poshan Tracker” on Google Play (developer: Ministry of Women and Child Development)

Escalation path if helpline fails:

  1. Contact your block-level CDPO (Child Development Project Officer)
  2. If CDPO cannot resolve, escalate to District Programme Officer (DPO)
  3. For state-level IT issues, your state ICDS IT nodal officer has backend access

Field-level contacts: Every block ICDS office in UP, Bihar, MP, and Rajasthan has a designated Poshan Tracker support person (usually the data entry operator or block coordinator). For login credential issues, this is your fastest point of contact — faster than the national helpline.

Final Thought

Poshan Tracker is not just a login screen. It is the digital nervous system of India’s nutrition programme — connecting 10.12 crore beneficiaries to field workers, and field workers to district officials, in near real-time. When login fails, that connection breaks, and the child or mother at the end of the chain gets missed.

If you do only one thing after reading this: confirm your registered mobile number with your supervisor before you need it urgently. Most login failures trace back to a number mismatch that could have been caught in 30 seconds.
