KALIA Yojana — Odisha’s long-running farmer welfare scheme — has been restructured into CM Kisan Yojana starting the 2025-26 cycle. Many guides still describe KALIA as the active, current scheme without mentioning this transition, which can lead farmers to check the wrong portal or expect outdated benefit amounts.
Krushak Odisha Portal — the foundational digital platform from the Government of Odisha bringing farmer registration and welfare scheme access under one umbrella, now connected to the restructured CM Kisan Yojana.
Official Portal: krushak.odisha.gov.in | CM Kisan Portal: cmkportal.odisha.gov.in
Quick Answer: Registration: krushak.odisha.gov.in → “Registration” → Aadhaar, mobile, land details, bank info → submit KALIA → CM Kisan transition: From 2025-26, benefits now flow through CM Kisan Yojana — old kalia.odisha.gov.in portal still exists for historical records, but current payments/status route through CM Kisan Current benefits: ₹4,000/year (small/marginal farmers, 2 installments) | ₹12,500/year (landless households, 3 installments) Critical: e-KYC is mandatory — without it, payments are blocked and your name can be removed from the beneficiary list
⭐ KALIA Yojana Has Been Restructured as CM Kisan Yojana
| KALIA (Earlier) | CM Kisan Yojana (Current, from 2025-26) | |
|---|---|---|
| Status | Largely restructured/replaced | Active, current |
| Small/marginal farmers | ₹10,000/year (2 installments) | ₹4,000/year (2 installments) |
| Landless households | ₹12,500/year | ₹12,500/year (3 installments) |
| Portal | kalia.odisha.gov.in (legacy records) | cmkportal.odisha.gov.in (current) |
| Relation to PM-Kisan | Separate | Provided in addition to PM-Kisan |
If you previously received KALIA benefits, your records have generally carried forward into the CM Kisan framework — but check cmkportal.odisha.gov.in directly for your current status rather than relying solely on the older KALIA portal.

Common Problems + Fix
“Checking KALIA portal but status seems outdated”: KALIA has been restructured into CM Kisan Yojana from 2025-26. Check cmkportal.odisha.gov.in for current, accurate status.
“Name in beneficiary list but payment not received”: Confirm your e-KYC is complete — this is the most common reason for blocked payments despite list inclusion.
“Land record not matching for landless category”: For landless households, submit alternative identification/caste certificate instead of land records.
“Payment delayed beyond expected timeline”: File a follow-up query through the portal’s grievance section, or escalate via RTI to your Block Agriculture Office — most documented delays clear within 7-15 days of formal follow-up.
“Don’t have Aadhaar-linked mobile”: Visit your nearest CSC or Block Agriculture Office for biometric e-KYC instead of the online OTP method.
