New Delhi. The 20th installment of the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-Kisan) scheme is likely to be released by June 20. Financial assistance is given to farmers under this scheme. The government has appealed to the farmers to update their EKYC and Aadhaar details as soon as possible so that they can get the benefit of the installment on time. The government has also clarified that farmers whose information will not be updated may be delayed in getting the benefit of installment. Therefore, all farmers are requested to update their information as soon as possible. Under the PM-Kisan Yojana, farmers are given financial assistance of Rs 6,000 every year, which is given in three installments. The objective of this scheme is to strengthen the economic condition of farmers and provide them the necessary resources for farming.
Under this scheme, farmers get ₹ 2,000 through DBT every four months, so that they can meet the cost and domestic needs of their farming. So far 19 installments have been released, the last of which was given in February 2025. The next installment is expected to come in June, although the authorities have not yet given any fixed date.
To get the installment, farmers have to fulfill certain conditions, such as:
1. Legislative ownership of cultivable land
2. Being an Indian citizen
3. Linking your Aadhaar number to bank account
4. Complete the formalities of Electronic KYC (EKYC) at online or CSC centers
How to update online
Farmers can complete EKYC by going to PMKISAN.GOV.IN portal by submitting their Aadhaar number and verifying through OTP. Linking Aadhaar to bank accounts can be done in bank branches or through Aadhaar-SAC Services and Mobile Apps. The beneficiaries are advised to go to the 'Farmers Corner' section on the portal and keep checking their position regularly by entering their Aadhaar or registration number.
