Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana : Eligibility, Documents and Application process

The Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana is a beneficial housing scheme launched in 2015 by the Government of India with the goal of providing affordable housing to all. The scheme will benefit economically disadvantaged groups, lower income groups, urban poor, and rural poor.

This scheme provides a credit linked subsidy scheme (CLSS) to eligible beneficiaries such as the economically weaker section (EWS), the low income group (LIG), and the medium income group (MIG). The credit linked subsidy scheme provides an upfront payment on the principal outstanding on a home loan for house construction/acquisition, including house repurchase.
