Good news for farmers across the country — the eagerly awaited 20th installment of the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana (PM-Kisan) is expected to be released soon. According to government guidelines, the upcoming payment will be credited to the bank account linked with your Aadhaar card.

To ensure transparency and that benefits reach genuine farmers, the government has made e-KYC mandatory for all beneficiaries. If you haven’t completed your e-KYC yet, now is the time — to avoid delays in receiving your next installment.
How to Do e-KYC — Two Easy Methods
If you still haven’t completed your e-KYC, don’t worry! You can do it from the comfort of your home using either of these two methods:
1️⃣ Aadhaar-based OTP Method
This is the simplest and most widely used method — ideal if your mobile number is linked to your Aadhaar.
Steps:
-
Visit the official PM-Kisan portal: https://pmkisan.gov.in
-
On the top right, click on the ‘e-KYC’ option
-
Enter your 12-digit Aadhaar number
-
You’ll receive an OTP on your Aadhaar-linked mobile number — enter and submit it
-
Upon successful OTP verification, your e-KYC is complete
2️⃣ Face Authentication e-KYC
This option is very helpful for farmers who don’t have their mobile number linked to Aadhaar or face issues receiving OTPs.
Steps:
-
Download both the PM-Kisan mobile app and the Aadhaar Face RD app from Google Play Store
-
Open the PM-Kisan app and log in with your registered mobile number
-
Under the ‘PM Kisan Yojana Beneficiary Status’ section, check your e-KYC status
-
If it shows ‘No’, click on ‘e-KYC’
-
Enter your Aadhaar number and proceed with the face scan guided by the app
-
Once completed, the screen will show ‘e-KYC Complete’
When Will the 20th Installment Be Released?
The 20th installment of the PM-Kisan Yojana is expected to be released later this June 2025. Each installment brings eligible farmers ₹2,000 in financial assistance.
While the official date for this installment hasn’t been announced yet, it is expected soon — especially since the 19th installment was successfully credited on February 24, 2025.
Farmers should prioritize completing their e-KYC well in advance so they don’t miss out or face delays when the 20th installment is credited.
Conclusion
If you’re a PM-Kisan beneficiary, don’t wait — complete your e-KYC today to ensure you receive your 20th installment smoothly. Stay tuned for further updates and the official release date — we’ll keep you posted!
