The central and state governments run various welfare schemes aimed at supporting farmers, women, children, and other vulnerable groups. One of the most impactful initiatives for farmers is the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana (PM-KISAN). This centrally funded scheme provides eligible farmers with annual financial assistance of ₹6,000, distributed in three equal instalments of ₹2,000.

Since its launch in 2019, the government has disbursed 19 instalments under PM-KISAN. Now, attention turns to the upcoming 20th instalment in 2025. However, to receive this payment, farmers must meet certain eligibility requirements. Failure to comply may result in a delay or denial of the instalment.

To ensure you continue to receive timely benefits under PM-KISAN, make sure the following criteria are fulfilled:

e-KYC Completion is Mandatory

The government now mandates electronic Know Your Customer (e-KYC) verification. If your e-KYC is incomplete, your next instalment could be withheld.

  • Biometric e-KYC: Visit the nearest Common Service Centre (CSC) to complete this process.
  • OTP-based e-KYC: Alternatively, complete it online via the official PM-KISAN portal using your registered mobile number linked with Aadhaar.

Aadhaar-Bank Account Linking

Your Aadhaar card must be linked to your bank account associated with PM-KISAN. If this link is missing or incorrect, your instalment may not be credited. Visit your bank to ensure the details are properly updated and verified.

Land Ownership Verification

Land verification is another essential requirement. The government cross-verifies land records to ensure that only eligible farmers receive benefits. If your land documents are not yet verified, your instalment could be withheld until the verification is complete.
