Millions of eligible farmers across India are currently awaiting the release of the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi 24th installment. Under this flagship central government initiative, landholding farmer families receive financial assistance of ₹6,000 per year, distributed in three equal installments of ₹2,000 every four months directly into their bank accounts via Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT).
With the previous (23rd) installment successfully credited on June 20, 2026, farmers are eagerly looking forward to the next installment update. Here is everything you need to know about the expected release date, mandatory e-KYC compliance, and how to track your status.
PM Kisan 24th Installment Release Date: What We Know So Far
While the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare has not officially announced the exact date for the 24th installment, standard payment cycles offer clear guidance.
- 4-Month Payment Cycle: The PM-KISAN scheme follows a strict four-month schedule (April–July, August–November, and December–March).
- Previous Release: PM Narendra Modi released the 23rd installment on June 20, 2026, transferring over ₹18,984 crore to more than 9.4 crore farmers.
- Expected Date: Completing the four-month interval places the release window for the August–November 2026 period in October 2026 (tentatively expected after October 20, 2026).
3 Mandatory Requirements to Receive ₹2,000 Payment
If any of the following three verifications are incomplete, your ₹2,000 payment may be paused or withheld:
