New Delhi: The Central government is all set to release the funds under the 11th installment of the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN) Yojana in the coming days. According to media reports, the 11th installment could be released by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on or around May 15 -- the same date on which the funds were released last year. However, as of now, the Central government hasn’t announced the official date for the release of the funds. In the meanwhile, farmers can check if their names are on the beneficiary list for the 11th installment under the PM Kisan Yojana.
Farmers can follow simple steps to check if their names are on the PM Kisan beneficiary list. Farmers whose name is on the beneficiary list will receive the funds for the upcoming installment.

Under the PM Kisan Yojana, the Central government transfers Rs 6000 to the bank accounts of poor and marginalised farmers every year. The fund is transferred directly into the bank accounts in three installments of Rs 2000 each year.
The first installment is usually released between April 1 and July 31 every year, the second between August 1 and November 30, and the third between December 1 and March 31.
Last year, the government released the funds on May 15, 2021. And that’s a major reason why many are expecting that the government could release the funds under the 11th PM Kisan Yojana Installment on or near May 15, 2022.
