PM Kisan Yojana: When will the amount of the 22nd installment of PM Kisan Yojana come..
PM Kisan Yojana 22nd Installment Date: After the release of the 21st installment of the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana (PM-KISAN), farmers are now eagerly awaiting updates on the 22nd installment. On November 19th, PM Modi transferred ₹18,000 crore of the 21st installment to the accounts of approximately 9 crore farmers. Previously, the 20th installment was released in August and the 19th installment in February. Now, farmers are awaiting an update on the release date of the 22nd installment. Under this scheme, farmers are given ₹6,000 annually. This amount is transferred directly to their bank accounts in three installments of ₹2,000 each every four months.
When might the 22nd installment arrive?
All three installments for the year 2025 have been released under the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana. The first installment of this year was released in February, the second in August, and the third in November, making it the 21st installment under this scheme so far. Now, the 22nd installment will be credited to farmers' accounts, marking the first installment of 2026. This 22nd installment is expected to be released between January and March, although the government has yet to officially announce this.
It is expected that the 22nd installment of the PM-KISAN scheme will be released in February 2026. The date of release of the first installment of this year, 2025, is being cited as the basis for this. In fact, the first installment of this year was released in February. If this happens again in the new year, the 22nd installment could be released in February 2026.
Updates regarding this scheme are periodically released on the official website of the PM Kisan Yojana, which we keep you informed about from time to time.

More than 9 crore farmers benefited
Recently, on November 19, 2025, Prime Minister Narendra Modi released an amount of ₹18,000 crore into the accounts of more than 9 crore farmers through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT). PM Modi released this amount during a farmer-focused program in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu. However, many farmers say that the 21st installment has not been credited to their accounts. However, this could be due to various reasons, such as not meeting the eligibility criteria or not linking their bank accounts to Aadhaar.
Which farmers were declared ineligible?
The Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN) scheme is a central scheme launched by the Government of India to provide financial assistance to farmers. There are certain eligibility criteria for this scheme; failure to meet these criteria results in farmers being declared ineligible. There are several reasons for this.
Farmers who provided incorrect age information have been excluded from the beneficiary list. Farmers who provided incorrect information in their Khasra/Khatauni have also been excluded from the scheme. Farmers who entered incorrect bank account numbers and IFSC codes may have their 21st installment funds blocked. Some farmers may have made any errors/mistakes while filling out the application form, and they too will not receive the benefit. Farmers who have not yet completed e-KYC have also been excluded from the list.
Check your name on the beneficiary list.
If you have not received the 21st installment of the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana, you should first check your beneficiary status and beneficiary list. We are providing a step-by-step process for this.
First, you need to visit the official PM-Kisan website - https://pmkisan.gov.in/. The online portal of the PM Kisan Yojana will open. Here, you'll need to click on 'Know Your Status' on the home page. Enter your registration number, mobile number, captcha, and OTP on the page that opens.
If you've forgotten your registration number, you can retrieve it using your Aadhaar card and mobile number by clicking on the Know Your Registration Number link on this page. This way, you can check your beneficiary status.
Check Your Name:
Visit the official PM Kisan website. Go to the 'Farmers Corner' section on the homepage. Click on the 'Beneficiary List' option. You'll need to enter your State, District, Tehsil/Sub-District, Block, and Village details. After entering all the details, click the 'Get Report' button. A list of beneficiaries will appear on your screen.
In the list, you can see the names of all farmers registered under the scheme. This list will display the beneficiary's name, father's name, village name, and installment status. If your name is not on this list, it may be due to the reasons we've listed above. If you have any issues with your KYC, you can complete your e-KYC online.
Understand the e-KYC process step by step.
The process of completing eKYC under the PM Kisan Yojana is very simple.
First, go to the PM Kisan website.
On the homepage, you will see the 'Farmers Corner' section.
Here, you will need to click on 'eKYC'.
Then, you will need to enter your Aadhaar number.
After entering your Aadhaar number, click on 'Search'.
You will now receive an OTP (One Time Password) on your mobile phone.
Enter the OTP and click on 'Submit'.
This will complete your eKYC process. A message will appear: 'eKYC is completed.' Consider your work done.
One more important thing: If your mobile number is not linked to Aadhaar, you will need to complete eKYC at a Common Service Center (CSC). There, eKYC will be processed through biometric verification.
