ANSWER THE MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE AND FARMERS WELFARE कृ िष एवं िकसान क(cid:670)ाण मं(cid:361)ी (SHRI SHIVRAJ SINGH CHOUHAN) (a) to (c): A statement is laid on the table of the House.STATEMENT MADE IN REPLY TO PART (a) TO (c) OF LOK SABHA STARRED QUESTION NO. 222 REGARDING FUNDS ALLOCATED FOR PM-KISAN RAISED BY SHRI ARUP CHAKRABORTY, MP DUE FOR REPLY ON 16TH DECEMBER, 2025. (a) & (b): The PM-KISAN scheme is a central sector scheme launched in February 2019 by the Hon’ble Prime Minister to supplement the financial needs of farmers with cultivable land-holding. Under the scheme, a financial benefit of ₹ 6,000/- per year is transferred in three equal instalments, into the Aadhaar seeded bank accounts of farmers through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) mode. Under the PM-KISAN Scheme, cultivable landholding is primary eligibility criteria to receive benefit of the Scheme subject to certain exclusions relating to higher economic status. A farmer-centric digital infrastructure has ensured that the benefits of the scheme reach all the farmers across the country without involvement of any intermediaries. While maintaining absolute transparency in registering and verifying beneficiaries, the Government of India has disbursed over ₹ 4.09 lakh Cr. through 21 installments since inception of the Scheme. Since it is an entitlement based scheme, wherein every eligible farmer family is benefited, there is no State-wise target for farmers enrollment and also no State-wise budget allocation under PM-KISAN. The instalment-wise, State-wise details of farmers benefitted and amount released to them during the last two financial years is attached at Annexure. (c): Under the PM-KISAN Scheme, States/UTs are mandated to identify and verify the eligible beneficiaries and upload the error-free data of eligible farmers including land records, linking of Aadhaar with their bank accounts and e-KYC for successful transfer of the benefits. The registration of farmers and their verification under the Scheme is an ongoing process. The farmers can register themselves through PM-KISAN Portal, PM- KISAN App, and Common Service Centers (CSCs). All such applications are approved by the concerned States/UTs after due verification. In the cases, where the required documents/details are not provided by the applicant, the application is liable to be rejected by the State/UT Governments. Once it is approved by the State/UTs, benefit is processed immediately by the Department. The number of farmers in the last two financial years who have been enrolled and who have received all benefits, partial benefits, and no benefits under PM-KISAN is as follows:No. of farmers who No. of farmers who No. of farmers who No of farmers received all received partial received no registered benefits benefits benefits 1,32,60,543 1,16,89,180 2,29,731 13,41,632 13,41,632 farmers did not receive benefits because of various reasons including non fulfillment of mandatory verification requirements such as land seeding or linking of Aadhaar with beneficiary’s bank account or eKYC, non-agricultural land use, a member of the family already receiving benefit of the scheme, voluntary surrender (before receiving any benefit) and being found income tax payee. In case of the farmers who received partial benefits, their benefits were stopped to verify various details including land use and other exclusion criteria. It is pertinent to mention here that the registration of farmers and their verification under the scheme is an ongoing process. Once the correct and verified data of farmers is received from the State/UTs, benefit is processed immediately by the Department and the same is released in the subsequent instalment.Annexure State-wise and installment-wise details of benefits distributed under PM-KISAN during FY 2023-24 and FY 2024-25, as on 25.11.2025 15th Instalment 14th Instalment (August, 2023 -
