PM-KISAN Scheme 23nd Installment: Under the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana, the central government is preparing to release the 23rd installment soon into the bank accounts of crores of farmers.

For reference, the 22nd installment was successfully credited on March 13, 2026, providing ₹2,000 directly to eligible farmers. Since then, beneficiaries have been eagerly waiting for the next payment.

As per the scheme's usual 4-month cycle, the 23rd installment is expected to be released around June-July 2026. Reports and expert estimates suggest that the amount may be transferred by the end of June or early July, although there is no official confirmation yet. The ₹2,000 will be credited through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) directly into farmers' bank accounts.
