PM Kisan Samman Nidhi : 22nd Installment Date Declared official date for the 22nd installment of the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM Kisan) Yojana has not been announced by the Government of India.

The scheme provides eligible farmers with ₹6,000 annually in three equal installments of ₹2,000 each, directly transferred to their Aadhaar-linked bank accounts. The installments are typically released every four months, following these cycles:

The most recent 21st installment* was released on November 19, 2025, by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, benefiting over 9 crore farmers with a total disbursement of around ₹18,000 crore.

Expected Timeline for the 22nd Installment

Based on the standard four-month cycle and media reports from reliable sources:

- The 22nd installment is expected in early 2026, most likely in February 2026.

- Some reports suggest it could arrive as early as January 2026 or by the end of February, aligning with the December-March cycle.

However, no official confirmation has been made yet. Farmers are advised to regularly check the official PM Kisan portal for updates.

Important Steps to Ensure You Receive the Installment

To avoid delays or rejection, complete these mandatory requirements as soon as possible:

1. e-KYC: This is compulsory. You can do OTP-based e-KYC on the portal, biometric at a CSC center, or face authentication.

2. Aadhaar Linking: Ensure your Aadhaar is linked to your bank account.

3. Land Records Verification: Update and verify your land details on the portal.
