Quick Answer:
To check date-wise transaction records at your FPS shop in Assam, go to epos.assam.gov.in and click on Transaction Details in the menu. Select the year and month, then enter your FPS ID number — available at epos.assam.gov.in/dfso_fps_details. The report shows every date on which ration was distributed at your shop, how many families collected on each date, and individual RC-wise details. No login is required.
You went to your ration shop on the 12th of last month. The dealer said the machine was not working that day and asked you to come back. You came back on the 18th and collected your ration. But now your neighbour is telling you that someone else collected ration on the 12th against your card.
Or maybe a different situation — the dealer says ration was given on the 5th but you were out of town that week and nobody from your family went. Yet the system might show a transaction on your card that day.
Both situations happen in Assam. The date-wise transaction report at epos.assam.gov.in is the one tool that can settle these questions with government data. It shows exactly which date ration was distributed at your FPS shop, and if you have your RC number, it shows the specific date your card was used. This guide walks you through how to check it step by step.
If you are new to the system, first understand how the ePoS Assam system works step by step in our complete guide.
What Is the Date-Wise Transaction Report?
Every time ration is distributed at a Fair Price Shop in Assam, the ePoS machine records the transaction with a timestamp — the exact date and time. These records are uploaded to the government server and stored in the AePDS system.
These records are part of the wider Assam PDS system, which manages ration distribution across the state.
The date-wise transaction report pulls all of these records for any FPS shop you select, for any month you choose, and shows them organised by date. So you can see that on April 5th, 47 families collected ration at your village shop. On April 8th, another 23 families collected. And so on through the month.
Within each date, you can see individual RC numbers — meaning you can verify whether your specific ration card was recorded as having collected on a particular date.
This report is different from the monthly distribution status. Monthly distribution status tells you the total count for the whole month. Date-wise transactions tell you exactly which days ration was given and lets you match specific dates to specific RC numbers.
Step-by-Step: How to Check Date-Wise Transaction at epos.assam.gov.in
Step 1 — Find Your FPS ID First
Before you can check transaction records, you need your FPS ID number. This is the unique code for your village or ward ration shop. Most people do not have this number memorised, so here is how to get it:
- Open your browser and go to epos.assam.gov.in/dfso_fps_details
- Select your district from the dropdown that appears
- The page shows all Fair Price Shops in your district — each with their FPS ID, dealer name, and village or ward location
- Find your village or ward in the list and note down the FPS ID number next to it
If the list is very long and you cannot find your village, use Ctrl+F on a computer or Find in Page on your phone browser, then type your village name. The FPS ID is a number — it usually looks like a 6 to 10 digit code. Write it down before moving to the next step.
Step 2 — Go to Transaction Details
- Go to epos.assam.gov.in
- Look for Transaction Details in the top navigation menu and click on it
- A page opens with three fields — Year, Month, and FPS ID
- Select the year you want to check
- Select the month — for example, March 2026
- Type the FPS ID number you found in Step 1
- Click Submit
Step 3 — Read the Date-Wise Report
After clicking Submit, the transaction report loads. Here is what you will see and what each part means:
| Column You Will See | What It Means | What to Check |
| Date | The specific date when ration was distributed at your FPS shop | Note all dates in the month when distribution happened |
| Transactions / Count | Number of ration cards that collected on that date | Compare with the total number of families in your village |
| Quantity Distributed | Total quantity of rice or other items given on that date | Should match the number of beneficiaries times their entitlement |
| RC Number (individual view) | Your specific ration card number in the list | Check whether your RC appears on the correct date |
Step 4 — Check Your Specific RC in the Report
Once the date-wise report loads, you will see a list of dates with counts. To check whether your card specifically was used on a particular date:
- Look for a search or filter option on the report page — usually there is a field to enter RC number
- Enter your RC number — the ration card number printed on your physical card
If you do not have your number, you can check your ration card details online before searching the report.
- The report filters to show only your card transactions
- You can see exactly which date your card was recorded as having collected ration
If the report does not have an RC search filter, you can download or view the full list and use Ctrl+F to search your RC number in the page. On mobile, use Find in Page from your browser menu. Your RC number will appear next to the date when your card was used.
Real Situations Where This Report Helps — Assam Examples
Situation 1 — Ration collected without your knowledge
A family from Barpeta district noticed their monthly rice entitlement was less than expected. They checked the date-wise transaction report and found that their RC was recorded on the 3rd of the month — a date when they had not visited the shop at all. The dealer had used their card without their presence.
With this date-wise report as evidence, they were able to go to the Circle Office and file a specific complaint mentioning the exact date and RC number. The Circle Office checked the same data on their end and initiated an inquiry against the dealer.
If you find a transaction date when you definitely did not collect ration, do not confront the dealer directly. Take a screenshot of the date-wise report showing the disputed transaction. Go to the Circle Office or DFSO with your ration card, Aadhaar card, and the screenshot. This is a formal complaint and should go through official channels.
Situation 2 — Machine offline claim on a specific date
In Dhemaji district, a beneficiary was told by her dealer that the ePoS machine had no network on the 8th and 9th of the month, so ration could not be distributed those days. She checked the date-wise transaction report for her FPS shop and found that transactions were recorded on both the 8th and the 9th — meaning other families collected ration on those same days.
The machine was not offline. The dealer had selectively distributed ration to some families using the machine while turning away others. Again — the date-wise report provided the exact proof.
Situation 3 — Verifying your own collection date for records
Sometimes you simply want to confirm what date your ration was officially recorded as collected — for your own records or because there is a dispute in your household about who collected and when. The date-wise report shows this clearly without any ambiguity.
Situation 4 — Checking if ration came to your village this month at all
In some months, ration allocation arrives late to certain districts or blocks. If your FPS dealer says ration has not come yet, you can check the date-wise report for your FPS. You can first check if ration has reached your FPS shop using the FPS status tool before looking at transaction records. If the report shows no transactions for the current month, the dealer is telling the truth. If it shows transactions for other families but not yours, then ration came and was distributed — just not to your card.
What the Dates in the Report Actually Tell You
The date-wise report often surprises people because distribution does not happen on a fixed date every month. Unlike Orunodoi which typically comes in the first or second week, ration distribution through the FPS shop depends on when stock arrives at the shop and when the dealer chooses to distribute.
In most districts of Assam, FPS dealers distribute ration over 4 to 10 days in a month rather than in one single day. This is because families come at different times and the dealer cannot serve everyone at once. So you might see transactions spread across 3rd, 5th, 7th, 12th, and 15th of a month — all for the same FPS shop.
Important to know: Seeing your RC number on a date when you did not personally go does not automatically mean fraud. Sometimes a family member collected on your behalf. Sometimes the dealer records the date of authentication, which might be different from the date you actually received the physical goods if there was a network delay and the machine uploaded the transaction later. If in doubt, check with your family first before filing a complaint.
Date-Wise Transaction vs Distribution Status — What Is the Difference?
| Distribution Status | Date-Wise Transaction | |
| What it shows | Total count of how many families collected ration in a month at your FPS | Exact dates when ration was distributed and which RC numbers were recorded on which dates |
| Best for | Checking if ration was distributed at your shop this month at all | Checking a specific date, disputing a wrong entry, or confirming your exact collection date |
| Level of detail | Monthly summary | Day-by-day with individual RC records |
| How to access | Transaction Details — select month and FPS ID | Transaction Details — same steps, drill down into specific dates within the report |
In practice, most people should check distribution status first to confirm ration was distributed at their shop in a given month. If something looks wrong or unclear, then they go deeper into the date-wise records to find the specific date where the problem occurred.
You can check the monthly ration distribution status first, then come back here to verify exact dates if needed.
What to Do If You Find a Problem in the Date-Wise Report
- Take a clear screenshot of the report showing the date, your RC number, and the transaction that looks wrong. Do this before closing the browser — the URL may not save your search results.
- Write down the specific date, your RC number, and FPS ID on paper as a backup.
- Do not confront the dealer at the shop. Dealers who commit irregularities in the ePoS system often become hostile when confronted directly, and this rarely helps.
- Visit your Circle Office — also called the Food Supply Circle Office or TFSO in your area. Tell them you have checked the date-wise transaction report online and found a specific issue.
- Carry your Aadhaar card, physical ration card, and the screenshot. The Circle Office can pull up the same data on their system.
- If the Circle Office does not respond, call the PDS toll-free helpline 1967 from any phone. This is the national helpline that covers Assam and is free to call.
- For Assam-specific escalation, contact your District Food Supply Office — DFSO. Their contact details are on pds.assam.gov.in.
Do not pay anyone money to fix a wrong transaction record. The process is completely free through official channels. If anyone — including a local agent or even a Panchayat member — asks for money to correct your ePoS record, that is illegal. Report it along with the original complaint.
Common Questions About Date-Wise Transactions in Assam
How far back can I check date-wise transactions?
The ePoS Assam portal stores transaction records for multiple financial years. You can typically go back 2 to 3 years by selecting earlier years in the Year dropdown. However, data from before the ePoS system was introduced in your area may not be available.
My RC number is not appearing in the date-wise report for any date this month — what does it mean?
If your RC number does not appear anywhere in the current month report for your FPS, it means no ration was distributed against your card this month. This could mean you did not collect, someone else in your family did not collect, or there is an authentication issue with your card. Check with your FPS dealer first. If the dealer says you did collect but the report shows nothing, the machine may not have uploaded that transaction — this needs to be reported to the Circle Office.
The report is loading very slowly or showing an error — what to do?
The ePoS portal gets heavy traffic during distribution months when many people check records simultaneously. Try accessing early in the morning before 9 AM or in the evening after 9 PM. If the error persists, clear your browser cache and try again. The portal works on both Chrome and Firefox. If it does not load on mobile, try on a desktop browser.
Can I download the date-wise report as a PDF?
Some views in the ePoS portal allow you to print or export the report. Look for a Print or Download button on the report page. If this is not available, take a screenshot of the full report on your phone. On most Android phones, press Volume Down and Power button together to take a screenshot. This screenshot serves as evidence if needed for complaints.
I found my RC in the report on the right date but the quantity shown is less than my entitlement — what to do?
If the transaction shows you collected less than your entitled quantity — for example, 15 kg instead of 20 kg for a PHH family of 4 — that is a shortage complaint. Note the exact quantity shown in the report and visit the Circle Office. The difference between your entitlement and what was recorded needs to be explained and corrected. You may be entitled to the shortfall in the next distribution cycle.

Final Note
Most ration card holders in Assam do not know that every single transaction at their FPS shop is recorded with a date, time, and RC number — and that this record is publicly available online without any login. This information has always been there. The ePoS system was specifically designed to create this transparency.
Checking date-wise transactions takes about 5 minutes once you have your FPS ID. Make it a habit to check this report every month, a few days after you collect your ration. If the date matches when you collected, everything is correct. If something looks wrong, you now know exactly what to do.
