PM Kisan 20th Installment Date: The 20th installment of the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana is expected to be released by the end of June 2025, as per the scheme’s schedule of three annual payments. While the official date is yet to be confirmed by the government, past trends indicate that the next tranche of Rs 2,000 could be announced in the final week of June. Here’s what farmers should know about the expected release date, eligibility, and how to check payment status.
Under the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi, the central government provides financial assistance of Rs 6,000 annually to eligible farmers in three equal installments of Rs 2,000, directly transferred to their bank accounts via Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT).
So far, 19 installments have been released at four-month intervals. Prime Minister Narendra Modi disbursed the 19th installment in February 2025, benefiting more than 9.8 crore farmers, including 2.4 crore women.
Earlier, the 18th installment was released in October 2024 and the 17th in June 2024.
What Is The PM Kisan Scheme?
Launched in 2019 after being announced in the Interim Budget by then Finance Minister Piyush Goyal, the PM Kisan scheme has become the world’s largest DBT scheme. Under it, eligible farmers receive Rs 2,000 every four months totaling Rs 6,000 annually in the following cycles — April-July, August-November, and December-March.
The money is deposited directly into the bank accounts of the beneficiaries.
