SSO ID Password Change — How to Update Your Rajasthan SSO Password
If you know your current password and simply want to change it, do it from your profile after signing in at sso.rajasthan.gov.in. If you cannot sign in at all, that is a different job — use the password reset flow instead, covered in our forgot SSO ID guide.

Changing a password you already know is a two-minute job done inside your own SSO account. Sign in as usual, open your profile or account settings, and look for the option to update or change the password. You will normally be asked for the current password once, then the new one twice. Nothing about this touches your Aadhaar or Jan Aadhaar record — only the password on the SSO account changes.
The Rajasthan SSO portal publishes an official password policy, and the new password has to satisfy it or the form will reject it. The published policy sets a minimum of 8 characters and a maximum of 30, and asks for a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, digits, and special characters. The same policy states plainly that SSOID passwords are meant to be strong and to be changed or updated regularly by users themselves.
It is worth knowing why this matters more here than on an ordinary website. One SSO ID reaches scholarship applications, recruitment forms, salary records, and Jan Aadhaar linked services. A weak or reused password puts all of that behind one guess. Departmental guidance from DoIT&C is blunt on the related point: your SSOID and password are to be kept secret and never shared, even if someone asks over a phone call or by email.
Two situations often get mixed up. If you remember the password and want a new one, that is a password change and you do it from inside the account. If you have forgotten it and cannot get in, that is a password reset, and it runs through the portal's forgot-password route with a one-time password sent to your registered mobile number. The steps below cover the first case, and the FAQ points you to the right place for the second.
Choosing a password that the portal accepts
Most rejected passwords fail on one of two things: they are too short, or they leave out a character type. The published policy asks for 8 to 30 characters covering uppercase, lowercase, digits, and special characters, so a password like a single dictionary word will not pass however memorable it is.
A practical approach is a short phrase you will actually remember, with deliberate substitutions and a symbol, rather than a random string you end up writing on the back of a form. Keep it unique to this account. Reusing a password from social media or email means one leak elsewhere exposes your government services too.
After the change: what to update
Sign in once with the new password before you close the browser. It is a small check that saves a bad surprise on the day a form is due. If you use the official SSO Rajasthan mobile app as well, sign in there again too, since the app and the website share the same account.
If a browser or password manager saved the old password, update or remove the stored copy. A saved old password is a common reason people believe the change failed when it actually worked. On a shared or public computer, do not save it at all and sign out fully when you finish.
Requests for your password are always a red flag
No genuine helpdesk agent, e-Mitra operator, or department official needs your SSO password or OTP to help you. DoIT&C's own guidance says the SSOID and password should be kept secret and not shared with others even if requested by phone or email. Treat any such request as an attempt at fraud and end the call.
Recovery and password changes on the SSO portal are free. If someone asks for a fee to unlock an account or reset a password, they are not providing a government service. Reach the portal by typing sso.rajasthan.gov.in yourself rather than following an advertisement or a forwarded link.

Steps
- 1
Sign in to the official portal
Open https://sso.rajasthan.gov.in/signin and log in with your current SSOID and password. Confirm the address ends in rajasthan.gov.in before typing anything.
- 2
Open your profile settings
From the dashboard, open your profile or account settings, usually reachable from your name or the profile icon, and look for the password option.
- 3
Enter your current password
Type the password you are using now. This is the step that proves the change is being made by the account holder.
- 4
Set a password that meets the policy
Choose 8 to 30 characters combining uppercase, lowercase, digits, and special characters. Avoid a password you already use on another site.
- 5
Save and sign in again
Confirm the new password and save. Sign out, then sign back in once with the new password so you know it works before you need it under deadline pressure.
Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I change my SSO ID password?
- Sign in at sso.rajasthan.gov.in with your current password, open your profile or account settings, choose the password option, enter the current password once and the new password twice, then save. Sign in again with the new password to confirm it works.
- What are the SSO password rules?
- The official Rajasthan SSO password policy requires 8 to 30 characters with a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, digits, and special characters. The full policy is published at sso.rajasthan.gov.in/docs/password_policy.pdf.
- What is the difference between changing and resetting an SSO password?
- Changing means you know the current password and want a new one, done from inside your account. Resetting is for when you cannot sign in at all and runs through the portal's forgot-password option using an OTP to your registered mobile number.
- I forgot my password, so I cannot log in to change it. What now?
- Use the forgot-password option on the official sign-in page instead. A one-time password is sent to the mobile number registered on the account. Our forgot SSO ID guide walks through every recovery route.
- Does changing my SSO password affect Aadhaar or Jan Aadhaar?
- No. It only changes the password on your SSO account. Your Aadhaar and Jan Aadhaar records are separate and are not modified by an SSO password change.
- How often should I change my SSO ID password?
- The published policy states that SSOID passwords are meant to be strong and changed or updated regularly by users. A sensible habit is to change it periodically and immediately if you suspect anyone else has seen it.
- Is it safe to let an e-Mitra operator change my password for me?
- Do not share your password or OTP with anyone. Departmental guidance from DoIT&C states your SSOID and password should be kept secret and not shared, even if requested by phone or email. Genuine support never needs your password.
- Does RajSSO Guide change passwords or store them?
- No. RajSSO Guide is an independent information site. It never asks for, changes, or stores your SSO ID, password, or OTP. Every password change happens on sso.rajasthan.gov.in.
