Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN)

यह क्या है?

PM-KISAN is a fully centrally funded income support programme for farming families who own cultivable land. The money arrives as a direct bank transfer, intended to help with the cost of seeds, fertiliser and other farm inputs as well as household needs.

When the scheme began it was limited to families holding up to two hectares, but that ceiling was removed in 2019. Landholding size no longer affects entitlement. What matters is that cultivable land is recorded in the applicant's name and that no member of the family falls into one of the excluded categories.

Payment is automatic once a farmer is verified and enrolled: three instalments a year, roughly every four months, into an Aadhaar-seeded bank account. There is no need to reapply for each instalment.
