PM Kisan 12th Installment: Government to Transfer Rs. 2000 to Farmers' Bank Account on Oct 17

An official statement released by the Ministry of Agriculture & Farmers Welfare last week mentioned that the Central government will release the 12th installment of PM Kisan Yojana during the ‘Agri-startup Conclave & Kisan Sammelan’ on 17 & 18 October 2022.   

It is important to mention here that till now, the Centre has released eleven installments under Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana and the last one was disbursed on 31st May.

Under the scheme, the 1st installment in a financial year is transferred between April 1 and July 31. The 2nd installment is sent between August 1 and November 30. And the last installment is released between December 1 and March 31.

Farmers who have not completed e-KYC might not get Rs. 2000

Farmers who haven’t completed their e-KYC may face problems in getting the 12th installment of PM Kisan. It must be noted that the government made e-KYC compulsory for all the beneficiaries of the PM Kisan scheme a few months back.

To help farmers complete the e-KYC, the government extended the deadline twice but still, it was found that many beneficiaries were not able to follow the guidelines.

In the past few months, many scams were reported under PM Kisan wherein ineligible people took benefit of the scheme by submitting fake documents. The very recent news came from Kerala wherein the Union finance ministry asked the state agriculture department to immediately recover Rs 31 crore from 30,416 ineligible beneficiaries of PM Kisan.

To confirm if you will receive financial assistance or not, it is important to check your application status or payment status on the official website or PM Kisan mobile app.
