PMAY | 2018 | Application Process | Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana

Previously called “Housing for All”, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) in 2015 to provide a place to reside for millions of urban poor. The Government has already identified over 2,508 cities and towns across 26 states in the country with an aim to build over 2 million houses.

Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) can be applied by two categories

1. MIG, LIG and EWS (Other 3 Components) – The economically weaker sections like MIG, LIG and EWS are considered as beneficiaries under the Housing for All by 2022.

• Middle Income Group (MIG) – annual income between Rs. 6 lakh and Rs. 18 lakh.
• Lower Income Group (LIG) – annual income is between Rs.3 lakh and Rs.6 lakh.
• Economically Weaker Section (EWS) – annual income stands at Rs. 3 lakh.

2. Slum Dwellers – Slum areas are poorly built residences where 60 to 70 households or approximately 300 people stay. These areas are unhygienic as they lack proper sanitation facility, proper infrastructure and drinking water. People living in these people can apply for the Housing for All by 2022 Scheme under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana.
