Farmers under PM Kisan Yojana 2025 need to complete Aadhaar e-KYC to receive their upcoming installment. The government has clarified that only beneficiaries with verified Aadhaar will receive the ₹2,000 payment directly in their bank accounts. This step ensures that funds reach genuine beneficiaries and prevents duplicate or fraudulent claims.
Why Aadhaar e-KYC is Important
Making Aadhaar e-KYC mandatory ensures transparency and accuracy in PM Kisan payments. By linking your Aadhaar to your bank account:
- Payments are credited to the correct beneficiary without delays.
- Duplicate or fraudulent claims are prevented.
- Records of eligible farmers remain up-to-date and accurate.
Completing e-KYC is especially crucial for those who rely on this financial support for daily needs or farming expenses.
21st Installment Payment Date and Eligibility
The 21st installment of PM Kisan is scheduled for November 2025. Beneficiaries who have completed all requirements, including Aadhaar e-KYC, will have the installment directly credited to their bank accounts. Farmers whose e-KYC is pending may face delays or may not receive the payment until the verification is completed. It is therefore important to act quickly and verify your Aadhaar before the payment date.
How to Complete Aadhaar e-KYC
The process is simple and can be done online or at a Common Service Centre (CSC).
- Visit the PM Kisan portal and go to Farmers Corner.
- Select e-KYC and enter your Aadhaar number.
- An OTP will be sent to your Aadhaar-linked mobile number. Enter it to verify.
- If OTP verification fails, visit a CSC for biometric or face authentication.
- Once verification is complete, your e-KYC status updates on the portal, usually within 24 hours.
Completing these steps ensures that your next payment is processed smoothly.

- Name, date of birth, and Aadhaar details exactly match PM Kisan records.

These checks help avoid payment delays.
