Here’s everything you need to know — from expected release to eligibility and status check.

What is PM-Kisan Yojana ?
The PM-Kisan scheme is a central government initiative that provides ₹6,000 annually to eligible landholding farmers. The financial aid is disbursed in three equal instalments of ₹2,000 every four months. The amount is transferred directly to the farmers’ bank accounts through the Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) system.



20th Instalment Status: When Will It Be Released?
The last (19th) instalment was credited on February 24, 2025, during the Prime Minister's visit to Bhagalpur, Bihar. As for the 20th instalment, it is expected anytime this month, but no official release date has been declared yet. Beneficiaries are advised to keep checking the official PM-Kisan portal for updates.

Mandatory e-KYC: Complete It to Stay Eligible
To continue receiving benefits under the PM-Kisan scheme, completing e-KYC is compulsory. Farmers can choose any of the following methods:
