PM Kisan 22nd Installment: These farmers will not receive the 22nd installment of Rs 2000! Is your name on the list?

PM Kisan Yojana 22nd Installment Date: The new year has begun, and from the fields to the villages, the only topic of discussion is when the next installment of the PM Kisan Yojana will arrive. For farmers whose accounts receive Rs. 2000 every four months, this amount is crucial. From fertilizers and seeds to small and large farming expenses, everything is covered with this money. Therefore, delays in the installment cause increased anxiety. This time too, millions of farmers are waiting for the 22nd installment, and there is also a fear that the Rs. 2000 installment might get stuck.

What is the PM Kisan Yojana?
The Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana was launched in February 2019. Under this scheme, eligible farmers receive a total of Rs. 6000 per year. This money is sent directly to their bank accounts in three installments. Rs. 2000 is received every four months, allowing farmers to manage their farming and essential household expenses. So far, the government has released 21 installments.

When will the 22nd installment of PM Kisan Yojana be released?
The biggest question now is when the 22nd installment of the PM Kisan Yojana will be released. The government has not yet announced a specific date, but looking at the previous pattern, it is expected that this installment may be released in February 2026. If the four-month rule is maintained as before, the money could be credited to the accounts by the end of January or between February and March.

Major change in PM Kisan Yojana: e-KYC and Farmer ID are mandatory
This time, a major change has been made in the PM Kisan Yojana. Now, simply completing e-KYC is not enough. The government has made it clear that the next installment may be withheld from farmers who do not have a unique Farmer ID. The Farmer ID is considered the digital identity of the farmer, containing information related to land, farming, and income.

Why is Farmer ID necessary?
The government says that the Farmer ID will ensure that the benefits of the scheme reach the right farmers. This will prevent fraudulent names and incorrect registrations. Farmers who have not yet obtained a Farmer ID may find their 22nd installment of Kisan Samman Nidhi withheld. Even without e-KYC, the next installment of money can be stopped.
e-KYC is already mandatory in the PM Kisan scheme. Farmers who have not yet completed e-KYC will not receive the next installment. Therefore, if you want to receive the ₹2000 on time, complete your e-KYC immediately.

Installments can also be withheld due to these mistakes:
Sometimes, the money is not stopped only because of e-KYC or Farmer ID. Discrepancies in Aadhaar and bank account information, a closed bank account, a changed IFSC code, or failure to update bank KYC can also be major reasons. Even errors in land records can cause the system to show the farmer as ineligible.

Land-related issues also become a reason:
If the land record is not updated, mutation is pending, or the land is under dispute, the PM Kisan installment can be stopped. In such cases, the farmer should visit their nearest office to correct the information.

Which farmers will not receive PM Kisan money?
Farmers who have not completed e-KYC.
Those whose bank account is not linked to Aadhaar.
Those who have not completed land verification.
Those who own more than two hectares of land.
Pensioners whose monthly pension is more than ₹10,000.
In all these cases, the 22nd installment will not be received.

How to check your name in the beneficiary list?
If you want to know whether your name is on the PM Kisan list, you can visit the pmkisan.gov.in website and select your state, district, block, and village in the Beneficiary List to view the report. If your name is on the list, there is a high probability of receiving the installment.

Do these important things now to receive ₹2000:
Last year, in 2025, all three installments of PM Kisan were released on time. The first installment was released in February, the second in August, and the third on November 19, 2025. Now all farmers are waiting for the 22nd installment. If you want the 22nd installment of PM Kisan to be credited to your account without any delay, complete your e-KYC, get your Farmer ID, and update your bank and land-related information. Even a slight lapse in compliance could result in you being deprived of the next installment of the Kisan Samman Nidhi scheme.
