Introduction India is on the path of global trend of increasing urbanization with 31.16% of its population living in the cities as per the 2011 census. This increasing urbanization has resulted in the demand of more housing across India. As a result various programs and policies were introduced to minimize the setbacks in the housing sector over a period of time. These efforts began with construction of houses in 1960s, to improvement and up gradation of slums through the 1970s and 1980s, since mid-2000 programs such as the Basic Services to Urban Poor (BSUP), Integrated Housing and Slum Development Program (IHSDP), Rajiv Awaas Yojana (RAY) in 2013, so on and so forth. Meanwhile, the shortage of housing continued to grow in India standing at 19 million homes as per the 2011 census. With such disquieting numbers, in 2015 the central government announced a comprehensive mission ‘Pradhan Mantri Awaas Yojana (PMAY) – Housing for all by 2022’.with two components- Urban and Rural. 1.1 Pradhan Mantri Awaas Yojana (PMAY) It is an initiative by Government of India in which affordable housing will be provided to the urban poor with a target of building 20 million affordable houses by 31 March 2022. This Mission will provide central assistance to implementing agencies through States and UTs for providing houses to all eligible families/ beneficiaries by 2022. Mission with all its components has become effective from the date 17.06.2015 and will be implemented up to 31.03.2022.
