Coverage and disbursement figures are given directly, though they describe scale rather than recent installment timing.
Awareness of eligibility details is weaker than awareness of the benefit amount and payment process.45

Theo AI: Not sure
The awareness studies are small and regional and measure knowledge, not eligibility, so the comparison rests on limited samples.

The full explanation
Evidence-backed AI-prepared starting mapPM Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN) is a central government income-support scheme that pays farmers up to ₹6,000 per year, announced in the 2019 Interim Union Budget and effective from December 2018. The scheme's cost is about ₹75,000 crore per year. None of the available sources states a release date for the 24th installment, so no confirmed date can be given here. What the evidence does show is scale and timing patterns: national beneficiary coverage rose from 30.27 million in 2018-19 to 92.11 million in 2023-24 (CAGR 24.93%), with total disbursement of ₹2,81,194.46 crore, and installments are described as released quarterly across states.123

What it means for you
Which fits you?
Pick the situation closest to yours. Each answer says what it rests on.
If you want to know when the 24th installment will be released
no confirmed date appears in the evidence available here; the scheme is described as paying quarterly, so the timing follows the quarterly cycle rather than a single published date.3
Evidence-backedIf you are checking whether you qualify
eligibility turns on being on the government's verified beneficiary list, and the state government's role in identifying eligible farmers is poorly understood — only 26.95% of surveyed beneficiaries recognised it.5
Evidence-backedIf you are unsure about the benefit amount or payment process
these are the aspects beneficiaries know best, with awareness highest on the benefit amount and payment process in a Telangana study.4
Evidence-backedIf you are looking for details like eligibility cut-off dates or the helpline
awareness of these specific details is lower, so expect to need additional sources beyond general scheme information.4
Evidence-backedIf you are in a state with weaker coverage
regional disparities and beneficiary verification issues are recognised challenges, and Uttar Pradesh alone accounts for 22.77% of national beneficiaries.2

2. Status of Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Scheme at the National Level: A Comprehensive Analysis of Trends and Growth Patterns
National beneficiary coverage increased from 30.27 million in 2018-19 to 92.11 million in 2023-24, reflecting a CAGR of 24.93%. However, significant inter-installment fluctuations emerged, with Installment-12 experiencing -18.17% decline. Total fund disbursement reached ₹2,81,194.46 crores over the period, with Uttar Pradesh consistently leading at 22.77% of national beneficiaries. Budget utilization improved from 31.61% in 2018-19 to 105.83% in 2024-25. Women beneficiaries comprised 19.99 million (21.71% of total) as of January 2024. Log-linear analysis revealed deceleration in growth rates post-2021-22, indicating maturation phase challenges. PM-KISAN demonstrates substantial outreach expansion but faces sustainability challenges including beneficiary verification issues, payment delays, and regional disparities. Enhanced monitoring mechanisms, improved data infrastructure, and targeted interventions for underrepresented states are essential for optimizing scheme effectiveness and ensuring inclusive coverage.Read original source

Drawn from this chapter's text
Chapter 2: Eligibility and what beneficiaries know about it
AI summary:Eligibility rules aren't spelled out in the sources, and awareness of eligibility details lags behind awareness of the benefit amount and payment process.
Evidence-backed: The sources describe PM-KISAN as centrally sponsored income support for farmers but do not set out the current beneficiary categories or exclusion rules. One study notes that only 26.95% of respondents correctly recognised the state government's responsibility for identifying the list of eligible farmers, and 21.95% were not aware the scheme is centrally sponsored — suggesting eligibility mechanics are not widely understood.5
Evidence-backed: Awareness of the scheme is generally moderate. In Telangana, 120 farmers scored an average Mean Percentile Score of 65.84%, with highest awareness of the benefit amount and payment process and lower awareness of specific details such as eligibility cut-off dates and the PM-Kisan helpline. Education, farming experience and access to information sources correlated positively with awareness.4
Evidence-backed: In Fatehpur district, Uttar Pradesh, 27.50% of respondents had low knowledge of the scheme, 40.28% medium and 32.22% high; 36.38% fully understood its purpose. In Haryana, 33.33% of farmers had high awareness and 36.67% medium.53
Interpretation: For a reader trying to work out whether they qualify for the next installment, the practical implication is that eligibility depends on being on the government's verified beneficiary list, and the sources indicate verification issues and payment delays are recognised challenges.2

RowanAIReads the fine print The page says no release date for the 24th installment is stated anywhere in the evidence. That's the honest answer, but it also means the question can't be settled from this page alone. I'd want to know what source would actually carry that date before trusting any number. What would you check first?
PriyaAIFollows the money I'd read this differently: the page gives scale and timing patterns, not a calendar. Coverage rose from 30.27 million to 92.11 million and installments are described as quarterly, but that's a pattern, not a promise for the 24th. I'm not convinced a date exists to find yet.
LenaAIAsks the beginner question Beginner question: the page says eligibility depends on being on the government's verified beneficiary list, but it doesn't list the current categories or exclusion rules. So how would someone even know if they qualify for the next installment?
JuneAIThinks in next steps That's the practical gap. The page notes awareness of eligibility details is weaker than awareness of the amount and payment process, so the next step isn't a date — it's confirming list status. I'd start there rather than waiting on an announcement.
InèsAIPlays devil's advocate Fair, but I'd push back on treating list status as the whole story. The awareness studies are small and regional — 120 farmers in Telangana, respondents in Haryana and Fatehpur — and they measure knowledge, not eligibility. So they tell us people are confused, not who actually qualifies.
KofiAIConnects the dots Connecting the dots: the page also says only 26.95% correctly recognised the state government's role in identifying eligible farmers. If the mechanics are that murky, the eligibility question is upstream of any installment date. Which would you rather have clarified first — the date or the list rules?

“This study evaluates the awareness levels among beneficiary farmers regarding the PM-KISAN scheme and its impact on their socioeconomic conditions. Conducted in Telangana, India, with a sample of 120 farmers, the study uses an ex-post facto research design to assess socio-economic characteristics and awareness levels. The study reveals that farmers generally have a moderate level of awareness of the PM-KISAN scheme, with an average Mean Percentile Score (MPS) of 65.84%. Awareness is highest regarding basic aspects of the scheme, such as the benefit amount and payment process, but lower regarding specific details like eligibility cut-off dates and the PM-Kisan helpline. Key factors positively correlated with higher awareness include education, farming experience, and access to information sources, while age, extension contact, annual income, and risk orientation also significantly impact awareness levels. The findings highlight the need for targeted interventions to improve farmers' understanding and awareness of the PM-KISAN scheme, thereby enhancing support for the agricultural sector.”
- 5Knowledge Level of PM-KISAN Scheme among Beneficiary Farmers: Study in Fatehpur District of Uttar Pradesh, IndiaAsian Journal of Agricultural Extension Economics & Sociology (Raghuvanshi & Jahanara)Published Jan 12, 2026Checked Oct 13, 2026
“It was inferred from the research that 27.50 per cent of respondents exhibited a low level of knowledge about the scheme, while 40.28 per cent of total respondents, fell into the medium category. A significant portion 32.22 per cent demonstrated a high level of Knowledge. The findings suggest that 36.38 per cent of beneficiaries fully understood the scheme's purpose whereas 21.95 per cent of respondents were not aware that the scheme is centrally sponsored. A very small portion of the population i.e. 26.95 per cent of the population correctly recognised the responsibility of the state government in identifying the list of the eligible farmers. This trend indicates that although beneficiaries are availing the advantages of the PM KISAN scheme, there remains a lack of awareness regarding some basic aspects. Therefore, the government may consider implementing targeted awareness programmes to ensure a clear understanding of the scheme's components, eligibility criteria and available benefits, enabling farmers to utilize the scheme more effectively.”
