Step 2:- Now, open the PM Kisan application, proceed to the next step, select your preferred language (English or Hindi), and submit.
Step 3:- You will now see two options; click on the ‘Update Mobile Number’ and login button just click on Login to proceed, and then select the ‘Beneficiary’ option.

Upon clicking, the beneficiary status will be displayed, and all relevant details will appear on the screen—such as whether the Aadhaar-bank account seeding is complete and the status of your e-KYC. If all these options show ‘Yes,’ it means your e-KYC is already completed; if they show ‘No,’ you will need to complete the e-KYC process.
Step 6:- To complete the e-KYC, you will find an option for ‘e-KYC via Aadhaar’ for the beneficiary; simply click on it. Once you click, a new page will open where you need to enter the Aadhaar number of the beneficiary for whom you wish to perform the e-KYC, and then click ‘search’.
