The Centre has already disbursed the 21st installment to farmers of Jammu and Kashmir following the devastating floods. According to the official notification, a total of Rs 170 crore was transferred to 8.5 lakh farmers of Jammu and Kashmir on October 07, 2025.

Under the PM Kisan scheme, eligible farmers get Rs 2,000 every four months, which is Rs 6,000 annually. The money is provided each year in three instalments — April-July, August-November and December-March. The fund is directly transferred to the bank accounts of the beneficiaries.

Farmers, however, need to register and update their e-KYC to be eligible for the next tranche in the scheme.
