How to Check PM-KISAN Beneficiary Status, Registration Number and Beneficiary List
Farmers registered under the PM-KISAN Samman Nidhi Yojana can check their payment status, beneficiary details and registration number online through the official PM-KISAN portal. Before every instalment, beneficiaries should also ensure that their e-KYC is completed, as it is mandatory for receiving the scheme benefits.

Step 1: Check Your PM-KISAN Payment Status
To verify whether your instalment has been credited, visit the ‘Know Your Status’ section on the official PM-KISAN portal.
- Enter your Registration Number.
- Complete the captcha verification.
- Verify the OTP sent to your e-KYC registered mobile number.
- After successful verification, you can view your payment status, bank details, UTR number, transaction history and instalment details.
Step 2: Retrieve Your Registration Number
If you do not remember your PM-KISAN Registration Number, there is no need to visit any office.
- Open the ‘Know Your Registration Number’ service on the PM-KISAN portal.
- Search using your registered mobile number or Aadhaar number.
- Complete the OTP verification.
- Your Registration Number will be displayed on the screen.
Step 3: Check the PM-KISAN Beneficiary List
Farmers can also verify whether their name appears in the latest beneficiary list.
- Visit the Beneficiary List section.
- Select your State, District, Sub-District (Tehsil), Block, and Village.
- Click on ‘Get Report’.
- The portal will display the complete list of eligible beneficiaries for the selected village. You can search for your name in the list.
Step 4: Complete e-KYC
The Government has made e-KYC mandatory for all PM-KISAN beneficiaries.
Farmers with an Aadhaar-linked mobile number can complete OTP-based e-KYC through the official PM-KISAN portal. Those who are unable to complete OTP verification can visit the nearest Common Service Centre (CSC) for biometric e-KYC.
Without successful e-KYC, the instalment may be delayed or withheld until the verification process is completed.
Common Reasons for Payment Delay
If your PM-KISAN instalment has not been credited, it may be due to one of the following reasons:
- e-KYC has not been completed.
- Aadhaar is not linked with the bank account.
- Incorrect bank account or IFSC details.
- Errors in land records or beneficiary information.
- Aadhaar and bank details do not match.
Beneficiaries should regularly check their status on the official portal and ensure that all personal, banking and Aadhaar details are updated to avoid delays in receiving future instalments.
What Information Can You Check Through the PM-KISAN Portal?
The PM-KISAN portal allows beneficiaries to access several services online without visiting government offices. After logging in with the required details, farmers can verify:
- Whether their application has been approved.
- Status of the latest and previous instalments.
- Date on which each instalment was released.
- Bank account into which the amount was transferred.
- Transaction or payment reference number (UTR), where available.
- Aadhaar verification status.
- e-KYC completion status.
- Beneficiary eligibility status.
Checking these details regularly can help farmers identify any issues before the next instalment is released.
Why Is e-KYC Important?
The Central Government has made e-KYC compulsory to ensure that financial assistance reaches only eligible beneficiaries.
If e-KYC is incomplete, the instalment may remain pending even if the beneficiary’s name is present in the scheme database. Farmers can complete OTP-based e-KYC online if their Aadhaar-linked mobile number is active. If OTP verification is not possible, biometric authentication can be completed at the nearest Common Service Centre (CSC).
What to Do If Your Name Is Missing From the Beneficiary List?
Sometimes beneficiaries are unable to find their names in the latest PM-KISAN list. This does not always mean that the application has been rejected.
Missing names may occur due to:
- Pending verification by the State Government.
- Incorrect Aadhaar details.
- Mismatch between Aadhaar and bank records.
- Land ownership records not updated.
- Incomplete e-KYC.
- Errors in the application form.
In such cases, beneficiaries should first check their application status through the PM-KISAN portal. If the issue persists, they can contact the local Agriculture Department or the nearest CSC for assistance.
How Is the PM-KISAN Assistance Paid?
Under the PM-KISAN scheme, eligible farmer families receive ₹6,000 annually, which is transferred directly into their bank accounts through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT).
The amount is released in three equal instalments of ₹2,000 each during the financial year. Once an instalment is approved, beneficiaries can verify the payment status online using their Registration Number.
Documents Required for PM-KISAN
While applying for the scheme or updating beneficiary details, farmers may need the following documents:
- Aadhaar Card.
- Aadhaar-linked mobile number.
- Bank account details.
- Land ownership records.
- Identity proof and address proof, wherever applicable.
Keeping these records updated helps avoid payment delays.
Benefits of Checking Your Status Online
Using the official PM-KISAN portal offers several advantages:
- No need to visit government offices for basic enquiries.
- Instant access to payment history.
- Easy verification of beneficiary status.
- Facility to retrieve the Registration Number online.
- Quick identification of Aadhaar, bank or e-KYC-related issues.
Regularly checking the beneficiary status also helps farmers ensure that they continue to receive future instalments without interruption.
Important Advice for Beneficiaries
Farmers should use only the official PM-KISAN portal for checking beneficiary details or completing e-KYC. They should never share Aadhaar OTPs, bank passwords or personal information with unknown callers or unofficial websites claiming to process PM-KISAN benefits.
