# PM-Kisan 24th instalment of Rs 2,000 on 30 October 2026-10-25T10:16:27+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet The 24th instalment of the PM-Kisan Samman Nidhi will be released on 30 October, with eligible farmers receiving Rs 2,000 directly into their bank accounts. The agriculture ministry announced the payment date on 23 October. Farmers awaiting the instalment should verify their details before the release. Receiving the instalment on this date does not guarantee payment to every registered farmer. Incomplete e-KYC, incorrect records, unlinked Aadhaar, or land verification issues may delay the payment. Farmers are advised to resolve these problems in advance rather than waiting until the last day. Completing e-KYC is mandatory under the scheme to confirm a farmer's identity. Farmers should ensure their bank account is linked to Aadhaar and their land records and personal information are correct. Farmers can check their eligibility and payment status on the official website pmkisan.gov.in by selecting 'Know Your Status', entering their registration number, and entering the OTP sent to their registered mobile number. For e-KYC, farmers have three options: OTP, fingerprint at a Common Service Centre, or face authentication via the PM-KISAN and Aadhaar Face RD apps. Farmers should complete all pending checks before 30 October to avoid payment problems. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The 30 October deadline for the PM-Kisan 24th instalment puts the onus on farmers to pre-empt technical hurdles, especially incomplete e-KYC, which is a mandatory condition. The agriculture ministry has given clear dates, but the story makes plain that a registered farmer is not guaranteed payment if records are flawed. Farmers with unlinked Aadhaar or unverified land records face delay regardless of the government's release schedule. The three e-KYC methods, OTP, fingerprint at service centres, and face authentication via apps, offer flexibility, but each demands prior action. The next concrete step for every eligible farmer is to check their beneficiary status on the PM-Kisan portal before 30 October and fix any gaps in e-KYC or bank-linking. ## Coverage - tv9hindi.com Straight informational article on scheme details and verification steps This brief was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
