The Central Government has officially released the 21st installment of the PM-Kisan (Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi) scheme.
Eligible farmers can expect to receive the benefit of ₹2,000 in the first week of November 2025, possibly before the Bihar elections.
This transfer is done through the Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) system, ensuring complete transparency and eliminating middlemen.
Farmers who have not completed e-KYC, verified land records, or updated bank details may not get the next instalment. Beneficiaries are advised to check their PM-KISAN status online to ensure payment.
Over 11 crore farmers across the country are expected to benefit from this installment, reinforcing the scheme’s role in supporting small and marginal farmers.
The PM Kisan Yojana continues to be a vital lifeline, helping farmers manage agricultural costs and ease debt pressures.
What is PM-Kisan Yojana?
Launched in February 2019, the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana gives financial help of ₹6,000 each year to eligible farmers.
The money is paid in three parts of ₹2,000 each, and farmers get these payments directly into their bank accounts every four months.
The main goal of this scheme is to support farmers’ income and help them become more self-reliant.
Since it started, the scheme has given over ₹3 lakh crore to farmers in different states, helping millions of small and medium-sized farmers.

How to Check the 21st Installment of PM Kisan
Farmers can easily find out if they have received the 21st payment by following these steps:
- Go to the official website – pmkisan.gov.in
- Click on “Beneficiary Status” under the Farmer’s Corner section.
- Enter your Aadhaar Number, Mobile Number, or Registration ID.
- Click “Get Data,” and your payment details will appear on the screen.
- If the payment is not received, it could be because of incorrect Aadhaar details, mismatch of bank account info, or incomplete eKYC.
Important Update for Farmers
The government requires all farmers to complete e-KYC (electronic Know Your Customer) for the scheme.
Farmers who do not finish their Aadhaar eKYC will not get future installments.
You can complete your eKYC online on the PM Kisan website or visit the nearest Common Service Centre (CSC) for help.
The release of the 21st installment shows the government’s dedication to helping farmers.
Eligible farmers should check their payment status now and make sure their bank and Aadhaar details are correct, so they continue to get benefits without any problems.
