In India both central and state governments roll out multiple welfare schemes to provide financial support and social security. Among these the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana stands out as a major benefit scheme for farmers. Recently, many beneficiaries have been confused about the PM Kisan Yojana 21st Installment as several farmers still haven’t received the payment even after its official release.
PM Kisan Yojana 21st Installment Released for 9 Crore Farmers
The Government of India transferred the PM Kisan Yojana 21st Installment on 19 November 2025. Nearly 9 crore eligible farmers received ₹2,000 directly into their bank accounts through DBT.

However, a large number of farmers have not yet seen the amount credited leading to concerns about whether they will miss out this year.
Why Is the Installment Still Not Credited After Four Days?
Even after four days of release, several farmers haven’t received the PM Kisan Yojana 21st Installment. According to officials, payments are processed only when all required documents and verification steps are fully completed. If any detail is incorrect or incomplete, the installment may get delayed.
Common Reasons Why PM Kisan Installments Get Stuck
To receive the PM Kisan Yojana 21st Installment farmers must ensure that all mandatory verification processes are cleared. These include:
eKYC completion
- Aadhaar and bank account linking
- Bank account verification
- Land record verification
- Revenue record verification
If any of these checks fail during verification the state government puts the beneficiary’s name on hold which stops the installment from being released.
How to Check PM Kisan Yojana 21st Installment Status Online
Farmers who have not received their payment can easily check the status are
- Visit the official PM Kisan portal.
- Open the “Know Your Status” or Beneficiary Status section.
- Type the registered mobile number & Aadhaar number.
- Check whether eKYC is updated, Aadhaar is linked, and land records are verified.
This helps farmers understand the exact reason for the delay.

Will Farmers Receive Their Pending PM Kisan Yojana 21st Installment?
Yes—farmers whose PM Kisan Yojana 21st Installment is stuck can still receive it.
The government has clarified that once the beneficiary updates their documents and completes all pending verification steps, the state government rechecks the data and forwards the name to the central government. After this, the installment is released via Direct Benefit Transfer.
Final Words
Farmers do not need to worry if their PM Kisan Yojana 21st Installment has not yet reached their account. As soon as they complete the required documentation and verification, the pending installment will be deposited. By keeping track of updates or checking your status on the official website, you can prevent unnecessary delays.
