PM Kisan 21st Installment Date 2025: Expected Release in November, No Official Confirmation Yet
The Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM Kisan) scheme continues to be a lifeline for small and marginal farmers, providing ₹6,000 annually in three equal installments of ₹2,000 each. For the 21st installment in 2025, there has been no official announcement from the central government as of October 26, 2025. Media reports and speculation point to a likely release in November 2025, but the exact date remains unconfirmed. The 20th installment has already been credited, and farmers are advised to complete e-KYC and land verification to avoid delays. This guide covers eligibility, process, benefits, and updates based on reliable sources—always verify on the official portal to steer clear of scams.
Current Status and Expected Date
No Official Date: The government hasn't specified the release for the 21st installment. Reports suggest it may arrive in November 2025, with low chances before October ends. The scheme follows a quarterly pattern (every 4 months), so post-20th (likely August-September), the next is due soon.
Recent Release: The 20th installment has been disbursed, including special credits to 27 lakh farmers in flood-affected states like Punjab, Himachal Pradesh, and Uttarakhand.
