The Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM Kisan) Yojana provides financial support of ₹6,000 per year to eligible farmers, distributed in three installments. With the 21st installment approaching, many farmers are wondering whether it will arrive in October as usual or if there will be delays. Here’s everything you need to know.
1. What is PM Kisan Yojana?
Launched by the indian government, PM Kisan Yojana aims to support small and marginal farmers by providing a direct cash transfer of ₹6,000 annually, split into three installments of ₹2,000 each. This assistance helps farmers manage crop expenses, seeds, fertilizers, and other agricultural costs.
2. Installment Schedule
Traditionally, the three installments are released as follows:

· 2nd installment: august – November
· 3rd installment: december – March
The 21st installment corresponds to the second installment of the current financial year.
3. Expected Date of 21st Installment
If the schedule remains consistent, farmers can expect the 21st installment to be credited in October. However, slight delays may occur due to:
