Are you eagerly waiting for the PM Kisan 20th installment? You’re not alone. Over 11 crore farmers across India are awaiting the next ₹2000 installment under the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana (PM-KISAN). The last installment (19th) was released on February 24, 2025, and it’s been over four months since then. So, when will the 20th installment come? Will it be released on July 18, 2025? Let’s break down everything you need to know.
🚜 What is PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana?
The PM Kisan Scheme is a central government initiative that provides ₹6000 per year in three equal installments to eligible farmers. The money is directly transferred to their bank accounts under Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT).
To receive the benefit:
-
Farmers must have cultivable land.
-
They must not be income taxpayers.
-
Institutional landholders or government employees are not eligible.
📅 When Will the 20th Installment Be Released?
Farmers had expected the 20th installment to be credited by the end of June, but as of mid-July, the money is still pending.
Expected Date: July 19, 2025
According to media reports, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to visit Motihari, Bihar on July 19 for a large public event. On this occasion, ₹7100 crore worth of development projects in IT, railways, and roads will be inaugurated. There is strong speculation that the PM Kisan 20th Installment will also be announced during this event.
If announced, the ₹2000 installment may reach farmer accounts on the same day or within 1–2 days.
