New Delhi: The Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN) Yojana is a significant scheme launched by the central government to provide financial assistance to farmers.

Each installment is Rs 2,000 and is transferred to farmers' bank accounts through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT).
Twenty installments of the PM Kisan Yojana have been released so far. The last, the 20th installment, was released on August 2, 2025. Farmers are now eagerly awaiting the 21st installment. This installment was expected to arrive before Diwali, but no official date has been announced yet.
PM Kisan Samman Nidhi: 20th installment released; Over 9.7 crore farmers will benefit
The official website of the PM Kisan Yojana, pmkisan.gov.in, has not yet updated any information regarding the 21st installment. Only the 20th installment is currently available on the website. Typically, the government updates the website and issues a press release a few days before releasing the installment, but this time, that hasn't happened.
Based on the scheduled installment interval, one installment is released every four months. The 20th installment was received in August, so it's expected that the 21st installment could be released in November 2025. However, due to a lack of official confirmation, farmers are still confused.
Each installment of the PM Kisan Yojana is released by the Prime Minister during a special event. PM Modi also interacts with farmers on this occasion. The installment amount is transferred directly to farmers' bank accounts, eliminating any middlemen.
If you are enrolled in this scheme, be sure to check your status on the official website. Be sure to complete mandatory procedures like e-KYC update and land records verification. This will ensure your next installment arrives on time without any interruptions.
Farmers' hopes for the 21st installment are now pinned on November. However, the official date is still awaited. Updates from the government are expected at any time, so keep an eye on the farmer portal and news.
