ANSWER
THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF HOUSING AND URBAN AFFAIRS
(SHRI KAUSHAL KISHORE)
(a) to (e): Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) has launched Affordable Rental Housing Complexes (ARHCs) on 31.07.2020 as a sub- scheme of Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana – Urban (PMAY-U) to provide dignified living to urban migrants/poor near their workplace during the Mission period. This scheme is being implemented through two models as under:
i. Model-1: Utilizing existing Government funded vacant houses constructed under Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JnNURM) and Rajiv Awas Yojana (RAY) to convert into ARHCs through Public Private Partnership (PPP) or by Public Agencies,
ii. Model-2: Construction, Operation & Maintenance of ARHCs by Public/Private Entities on their own available vacant land.
Further, the details of ARHCs scheme are available at http://arhc.mohua.gov.in/filesUpload/Operational-Guidelines-of-ARHCs.pdf.
Under Model-1 of the scheme, so far, 5,648 vacant houses have been converted into ARHCs by States/Union Territories (UTs) of Chandigarh, Gujarat, Rajasthan, Uttarakhand and Jammu & Kashmir. Further, Request for Proposal (RFP) has been issued for 7,413 vacant houses in various States.
Under Model-2, 73 proposals have been received from public/private entities for construction of 1,39,471 units in 18 States/UTs. Subsequently, 13 proposals for constructing 82,273 new ARHC units in 7 States have been approved by the Ministry. So far, Technology Innovation Grant (TIG) of Rs.174 crore has been sanctioned by the Ministry for construction of 82,273 new ARHC units using innovative construction technologies. Further, construction of 30,001 new ARHCs units have been started in various States. The State/City-wise details of progress of ARHCs under both models are at Annexure.
(f): The Operational Guidelines of ARHCs prescribes that the initial affordable rent of ARHCs will be fixed by the local authority based on a local survey. Subsequently, rent will be enhanced biennially by 8%, subject to maximum funding of 20% in aggregate, over a period of 5 years, effective from the date of signing the contract. Same mechanism shall be followed over the entire concession period i.e. 25 years.
