New Delhi: The Modi government at the Centre has so far disbursed 23 instalments of ₹2,000 under the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana. With the 23rd instalment already received by farmers, all eyes are now on the next one. Everyone is wondering when the central government will release the 24th instalment of ₹2,000 into their accounts.
This amount will also be transferred directly to your account via DBT (Direct Benefit Transfer). While the exact date for the credit of the instalment remains unclear, the scheme typically disburses funds to farmers every four months. If this schedule holds, the money for the next instalment will be released in November. However, there has been no official announcement regarding the specific date yet.
How many instalments have farmers received so far?
Farmers have received 23 instalments of ₹2,000 so far under the central government’s PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana. The last instalment was released on June 20, 2026, benefiting approximately 9 crore farmers.
Since then, farmers have been eagerly awaiting the 24th instalment; those who complete the necessary formalities will receive the benefit; failure to do so could result in the payment getting stalled, which would be a setback for the farmers.
Farmers should complete these tasks soon.
Farmers associated with the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana who wish to avail the benefits of the next instalment should first complete the land verification process. Additionally, they should ensure their e-KYC is updated promptly. Neglecting these tasks will likely lead to a delay in receiving the instalment amount. These procedures can be completed online to avoid any inconvenience.
How to complete e-KYC
Farmers can select the e-KYC option within the ‘Farmers Corner’ on the PM Kisan portal. After selecting e-KYC, enter your Aadhaar card number and verify it using the OTP sent to your linked mobile number. You can also complete this process via the PM Kisan app using a face scan.
Alternatively, you will need to visit a nearby Aadhaar centre. You can go to the nearest Common Service Centre with your Aadhaar card and mobile phone to complete the e-KYC process using your fingerprint.
When can the instalment be collected?
For reference, the Central Government released the funds for the 23rd instalment of the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana on June 20. The 24th instalment of ₹2,000 is likely to be released in October. While the government has not made an official announcement regarding the release of the instalment, media reports suggest this timeline. The official date for the release of the instalment will be announced for eligible farmers.
