PM Kisan 20th Installment: Here's How to Check If You Will Receive ₹2,000 This Time
Beneficiary farmers under the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN) scheme are eagerly waiting for the 20th installment. While the last installment was released in February 2025, the next payout has been delayed. Here’s everything you need to know — from the expected date of release to how to check your beneficiary status and what to do if your name is missing from the list.
When Will the 20th PM-KISAN Installment Be Released?
According to media sources, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is likely to release the 20th installment of ₹2,000 sometime in mid to late July 2025. His upcoming visit to Bihar on or around July 19 has sparked speculation that he may announce the release of the next installment during the event.
As of now, no official confirmation has been made by the central government. However, preparations are underway, and eligible farmers are advised to keep their details updated on the PM-KISAN portal to avoid missing the payout.
Why Has the 20th Installment Been Delayed?
The installment, which is normally disbursed every four months, was due in June 2025. However, delays have occurred due to technical reasons and data mismatches, particularly in land record entries and e-KYC completion. These issues have led to the rejection of thousands of applications across states.
How to Ensure You Receive the ₹2,000 Payment
To continue receiving benefits under the PM-KISAN scheme, farmers must meet the following eligibility and documentation requirements:
-
e-KYC Completion: Mandatory for all beneficiaries. Incomplete KYC will result in payment being withheld.
-
Aadhaar Linking: Your Aadhaar number must be linked to your bank account and land records.
-
Correct Land Record Entry: Incorrect state or district entries in land details are one of the biggest reasons for application rejections.
Fix Errors Using PM-KISAN Portal or CSC
If there are discrepancies in your data, here’s what you can do:
-
Use the 'State Transfer Request' option on the PM-KISAN portal to correct incorrect land record entries.
-
Visit your nearest Common Service Centre (CSC) for assistance with document corrections, biometric e-KYC, and record validation.
