If you’re a farmer in Assam and want to know whether you can receive PM-KISAN money, this guide will help you check the details. The Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi scheme provides financial support to eligible farmer families across India. You can use the official website to check your payment, complete eKYC and find out whether any information is missing from your record.
This article explains the process in simple steps, including what to do if your payment hasn’t arrived. You don’t need to visit a government office just to check your status online, although you may need help from a local service centre if your records require correction.
Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi, commonly called PM-KISAN, is a Central Government scheme launched to provide income support to eligible landholding farmer families. The scheme has operated since December 2018.
Under the scheme, an eligible farmer family can receive ₹6,000 per year. The amount is paid directly into the beneficiary’s bank account in three instalments of ₹2,000 each, subject to eligibility and the required verification.
For example, if your family is eligible and your details are verified, the money is transferred to the registered bank account. You should check the payment status on the official portal rather than rely on messages circulating on WhatsApp or Facebook.

The official portal reported that the 23rd instalment was released on 20 June 2026. This doesn’t mean every farmer will receive every payment automatically. Your eligibility, eKYC and other verification details can affect payment.
Eligible landholding farmer families in Assam can apply under PM-KISAN, subject to the scheme’s rules and exclusion categories. The state authorities use land records and other details to identify eligible families.
Certain categories are excluded, including institutional landholders and specified higher-income or public-office categories. For example, the scheme excludes certain serving or retired government employees, people who paid income tax in the previous assessment year, and specified professionals such as practising doctors, engineers, lawyers, chartered accountants and architects. There are exceptions for some categories of employees, so check the official rules for your situation.
Only one eligible farmer family can receive the benefit under the scheme’s family rules. A family is generally defined as husband, wife and minor children. If both spouses or other family members are receiving payments, the authorities may review the case.
Important: Don’t assume that owning land automatically guarantees approval. Land records, the applicable cut-off rules and other checks can affect eligibility. If your land was acquired after 1 February 2019, the portal may flag your case for verification. Check your current eligibility status before relying on a payment.
If you’re not registered yet, check the official portal for the current New Farmer Registration option. Keep your information ready before starting. The online form requires Aadhaar authentication, and the details you enter should match your supporting records.
Online registration doesn’t guarantee approval or immediate payment. The relevant authorities may need to verify your information before your name is added to the eligible beneficiary records.
If the registration page is unavailable or you can’t complete the form, try again later or ask an authorised Common Service Centre (CSC) or local agriculture office for help. Never share your OTP or banking PIN with someone claiming they can guarantee approval.
If you’ve already registered, you can check your payment and verification details online. This is useful when you want to know whether an instalment was processed or whether something is pending in your record.
If you don’t know your registration number, look for the portal’s option to retrieve it. Follow the current instructions on the official website instead of entering your details on an unofficial status-checking site.
You can also look for the Beneficiary List option on the official PM-KISAN portal. Select the location details requested by the portal to view the relevant list. Availability and the steps shown may change as the website is updated.
If your name isn’t listed, don’t immediately assume that you’ve been permanently rejected. Check your registration status and eligibility first. If the information is unclear, contact your local agriculture office or use the official portal’s grievance facility.
eKYC is mandatory for registered PM-KISAN beneficiaries. If your eKYC is incomplete, your payment may be held until the required verification is completed.
Online authentication depends on the available service and your registered details. If the portal doesn’t offer a suitable option for your case, use an authorised service centre.
If online eKYC doesn’t work, you can ask a nearby authorised CSC to help with biometric-based verification. Take your Aadhaar and any other documents the operator or official instructions require.
Practical tip: If the OTP doesn’t arrive, check whether your mobile number is active and whether it is the number linked to the relevant record. Wait a little before requesting another OTP. Avoid repeated attempts in quick succession, and never tell your OTP to another person.
There can be several reasons why a payment hasn’t reached your bank account. Before visiting an office, check the status displayed on the official portal and note any message shown there.
For example, if your neighbour has received an instalment but you haven’t, that doesn’t necessarily mean your application has been rejected. Your neighbour’s records may be verified while yours still needs attention. Compare your own status and follow the action requested by the portal.
If the issue remains unresolved, use the official PM-KISAN grievance or query facility. Keep your registration number and relevant details handy. Avoid paying an agent who promises to release a pending instalment.
Use these official resources for registration, status checks and corrections. The available options may change, so open the main portal if a page doesn’t load.
