PM Kisan Yojana There’s good news for crores of farmers across India. The Central Government is preparing to release the 20th installment of the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana (PM-Kisan) very soon. This financial support scheme provides ₹6,000 annually to eligible farmers in three equal installments via Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT). Over 9 crore farmers are currently enrolled in this flagship welfare program, and the next disbursement of ₹2,000 is expected to hit their accounts by end of June 2025.

Expected Date for 20th Installment

Under the PM-Kisan scheme, installments are released thrice a year — between April-July, August-November, and December-March. According to this timeline, the first installment for FY 2025–26, which is also the 20th installment overall, is likely to be released before June ends. While there’s no official announcement yet, government insiders and past trends strongly suggest the date will fall within the last week of June.

Ensure You Get the Next Installment: What You Must Do

If you’re a beneficiary under the PM-Kisan Yojana, you need to complete a few mandatory steps to ensure the installment reaches your bank account:

1. Complete e-KYC

e-KYC is compulsory to receive any funds under the PM-Kisan scheme. To complete this:

Visit the official website pmkisan.gov.in
Go to the ‘Kisan Corner’ section and select ‘e-KYC’
Enter your Aadhaar number and registered mobile number
Complete OTP verification

If your mobile number isn’t linked with Aadhaar, you can still complete e-KYC through face verification using the PM-Kisan mobile app.

2. Land Record Verification

Farmers must ensure their landholding details are verified. This can be done by visiting your nearest agriculture department office with relevant documents such as Khasra, Khatauni, and ID proof. Once your land is verified and seeded with your Aadhaar, you will become eligible for payment.

3. NPCI Bank Account Linking

To avoid payment delays, make sure your bank account is NPCI-linked with Aadhaar. You can do this by visiting your nearest bank branch with your passbook and Aadhaar card. This ensures the money is transferred directly to your account without intermediaries.

How to Check if Your Name is in the PM-Kisan List

You can confirm your beneficiary status by:

Visiting pmkisan.gov.in
Going to ‘Farmer Corner’
Clicking on ‘Beneficiary List’
Selecting your State, District, Block, and Village

This will show the complete list of eligible beneficiaries in your area. If your name is there, you’re all set to receive the next installment.

Final Reminder to All Farmers

If you haven’t yet completed the essential steps like e-KYC, land verification, or bank linking, do it immediately. Any delay may result in your installment being withheld. The government has reiterated its commitment to ensure farmers receive timely financial aid under the scheme. Don’t miss out on this support that can make a real difference to your seasonal income and crop investments.
