PM-KISAN e-KYC Deadline for 22nd Instalment in 2026

On March 12, 2026, the Central government issued an important advisory urging farmers to complete their e-KYC (Know Your Customer) verification process without delay. This directive comes ahead of the scheduled release of the 22nd instalment under the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN) scheme on March 13, 2026. Completing e-KYC is mandatory for all beneficiaries to ensure smooth disbursement of the financial aid directly into their bank accounts and to prevent fraudulent claims.

The PM-KISAN scheme is a flagship initiative providing financial support to eligible farmer families across India. For UPSC, SSC, Banking, and Railway competitive exam aspirants, this update is critical for Government Schemes and Current Affairs. Understanding the objectives, eligibility criteria, and operational mechanisms of such welfare programs is essential for various exam sections. Aspirants should also be aware of the total number of instalments released to date.

Expected question: For which instalment of the PM-KISAN scheme is e-KYC mandatory before its release on March 13, 2026?
