Construction of Houses under Pradhan Mantri Awaas Yojana- Gramin

The Ministry of Rural Development is implementing the Pradhan Mantri Awaas Yojana- Gramin (PMAY-G) from 1st April 2016 to provide assistance to eligible rural households for the construction of Pucca houses with basic amenities to achieve the objective of “Housing For All” in rural areas. Under the PMAY-G, the initial target was to provide assistance for the construction of 2.95 crore houses during FY 2016-17 to 2023-24. The Government of India has approved the implementation of the scheme during FY 2024-25 to 2028-29 to provide assistance for the construction of 2 crore additional houses. Under the scheme, as of 04.08.2025, the Ministry has allocated cumulative target of 4.12 crore houses to the States/Union Territories (UTs) against which the States/UTs have given sanctions to 3.84 crore beneficiaries and 2.81 crore houses are already completed.

The Ministry has achieved saturation of eligible households identified through the existing SECC-2011 list and the Awaas+ 2018 list in all the States/UTs except for the States of Jharkhand, Tamil Nadu, West Bengal & Karnataka. Additionally, the UTs of Delhi, Chandigarh and Puducherry are not implementing PMAY-G.

The Union Cabinet has approved the extension of Pradhan Mantri Awaas Yojana-Gramin (PMAY-G) for five years, from FY 2024-25 to 2028-29, with a target to construct 2 crore additional rural houses. In accordance with the approval of the Union Cabinet, a new survey is also being conducted for identification of additional eligible households by the States/ UTs using eKYC face based authentication through the Awaas+ 2024 mobile app and with modified exclusion parameters.   UT of Delhi is not implementing PMAY-G since inception of the scheme.

Note: PMAY-G is not implemented in UTs of Delhi, Chandigarh and Puducherry. State of Telangana did not implement the PMAY-G since inception of the scheme i.e. 1.04.2016.

* Due to non-receipt of the satisfactory Action Taken Report on irregularities in implementation of the scheme in the state of West Bengal, the Ministry could not allocate targets to state during the last two years.
