New Delhi: Farmers across India are eagerly waiting for the 20th installment of Rs 2,000 under the PM-Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana. Though the government hasn't confirmed the exact date yet, reports suggest that Prime Minister Narendra Modi may release the funds in July 2025, following a delay from the usual June timeline.

The Ministry of Agriculture recently issued an important advisory outlining six steps that farmers must follow to ensure they don't miss out on the next installment. These steps are crucial, especially since many payments are rejected each cycle due to minor errors or missing information.

What You Must Do to Get Your Rs 2,000

Complete e-KYC: This is now mandatory. Without e-KYC, no money will be credited. You can complete it using OTP-based, biometric, or facial authentication.

Link Aadhaar with Bank Account: Mismatches between Aadhaar and bank details can result in transaction failures.

Check Bank Details: Make sure your IFSC code and account number are correct to avoid failed transfers.

Update Land Records: The land must be in your name and properly verified in digital records.

Check Beneficiary Status: Go to pmkisan.gov.in to ensure your name is on the beneficiary list.

Update Mobile Number: You’ll need this for OTPs and to receive scheme-related alerts.

Why the 20th Installment Is Delayed

Typically, the PM-Kisan payouts are made in February, June, and October. However, the 20th tranche, initially expected in June, has been delayed without an official explanation. Media reports suggest that the Prime Minister will release it in July during an official event, to be announced soon.
