The Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN) Yojana continues to offer financial relief to millions of small and marginal farmers across India. Launched in December 2018, this central scheme provides ₹6,000 annually in three equal installments of ₹2,000, credited directly to the beneficiary’s bank account. As of now, 19 installments have been disbursed, and farmers are now eagerly awaiting the 20th installment in 2025.

When Will the 20th Installment Be Released?
Based on the past disbursement pattern—April, August, and December—it is likely that the 20th installment will be released in the last week of July or first week of August 2025. However, the official date will be announced by the Ministry of Agriculture. Beneficiaries are advised to stay updated via the official PM-KISAN website.
