Big Relief for Millions of Indian Farmers

There is finally some good news for India's farming community. The government is all set to release the 20th installment of the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana. 

This time, instead of ₹2000, the government will transfer ₹4000 directly into eligible farmers’ bank accounts.

Yes, you heard that right. ₹4000. Not just for a few thousand, but for over 9 crore farmers across the country.

This is not just an installment. It’s a lifeline for countless families who are already burdened with rising input costs, unpredictable weather, and falling crop prices.

Let’s break down, detailed behind this announcement.

What is PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana?

Started in December 2018, this scheme was launched by the Government of India to provide direct income support to small and marginal farmers. Under the scheme, farmers get ₹6000 per year in three equal installments of ₹2000 each.

But now, in 2025, the government has doubled the 20th installment to ₹4000, considering inflation, increasing fertilizer and seed prices, and the economic burden on rural households.

20th Installment Date, When Will You Get ₹4000 in Your Bank?

According to internal sources in the Ministry of Agriculture, the 20th installment is expected to be released in June 2025, likely during the first or second week of the month.

> 📌 Important: The exact date will be officially announced soon on the PM Kisan website.

 

Once released, the amount will be credited via DBT (Direct Benefit Transfer) to the farmers’ linked bank accounts. No middlemen. No agents. Pure, transparent financial help.

Who Will Get This ₹4000?

Not every farmer. Only those who meet the eligibility criteria and have completed e-KYC and land verification.

You must be a small or marginal farmer.

Your land records must be clear and verified.

Your Aadhaar and bank details should be linked and correct.

You should have completed e-KYC before the due date.
