Government Set to Release 21st PM Kisan Instalment on 19 November, 2025

The government has confirmed that the next instalment of the PM kisan scheme will be released on 19 November. With this payment, the cumulative amount transferred under the initiative will exceed ₹3.7 lakh crore, supporting more than 11 crore farmer families.

Early Release of PM Kisan Instalment in Select States

Special disbursements of the PM Kisan scheme’s 21st instalment have been issued ahead of schedule to farmers in Himachal Pradesh, Punjab and Uttarakhand.

These early releases were made in response to the severe floods and landslides witnessed in September 2025, with Jammu and Kashmir receiving the instalment on 7 October 2025.

Government to Release New PM Kisan Instalment

The forthcoming 21st instalment reflects the ongoing implementation of PM kisan, a programme that offers eligible farming families ₹6,000 annually.

Over the years, the scheme has become a significant Direct Benefit Transfer intervention, now directing more than a quarter of its support to women farmers.

Digital Measures Strengthening Access

According to the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare, various digital upgrades have contributed to smoother operations. Aadhaar-based e-KYC can now be completed using OTP, biometric verification, or facial authentication, which helps ensure secure access.

Updated features on the PM kisan mobile app and the online portal such as the “Know Your Status” option provide clearer information to beneficiaries.

Additionally, Aadhaar-linked doorstep banking through India Post Payments Bank has widened service reach.
